Gemstone has Gofer. I develop on Pharo, save to .mcz using Monticello and then 'Gofer it' via a Pharo 3 image running Tode to load into Gemstone. Dale is updating Tode so that Pharo versions 6 and 7 should now or soon run Tode. Gemstone also does Git. Pierce

Loading an iceberg repo from in the playground
by sergio ruiz Feb. 10, 2019

Feb. 10, 2019

Iâd like to pull my iceberg projects inside the playground, so that I can automate the loading on the command line. Is there any documentation on how to do this?

Voyage
by horrido Feb. 8, 2019

Feb. 8, 2019

I'm trying to load Voyage for MongoDB and I'm having great difficulty. The docs seem to be out of date. What are the current instructions for doing this? The docs also refer to "Configurations Browser" in World Menu/Tools, but there is no longer any such thing. -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html

PharoLauncher image preferences (background, etc.)
by Esteban Maringolo Feb. 8, 2019

Feb. 8, 2019

Is there a way to disable the automatic loading of background pic and other preferences? I want new blank images to be that, blank, and customize each to provide a visual feedback that help me differentiate them at a quick look. I don't know if there are other preferences being copied as well. Regards, Esteban A. Maringolo

Pharo Launcher and Command Line
by sergio ruiz Feb. 8, 2019

Feb. 8, 2019

Hey, all. I REALLY dig the pharo launcher! this is a great addition. One quick question. How do i go about running a method from the command line? Specifically, I usually run something like: ./pharo Pharo.image ../scripts/setup-client-application.st To set up a new image with the current project. I am not sure which executable to run with this that will execute the same executable as pharo launcher.

Formatting Dates
by sergio ruiz Feb. 7, 2019

Feb. 7, 2019

I have been using this to format dates: printFormat: #(3 2 1 $/ 1 1 2) which goes like: printFormat: formatArray "Answer a String describing the receiver using the argument formatArray." ^ String new: 16 streamContents: [ :aStream | self printOn: aStream format: formatArray ] But i am unclear on how to assemble this formatArray to get a date like: mm/dd/yyyy any ideas?

Non-greedy RegEx?
by Manuel Leuenberger Feb. 7, 2019

Feb. 7, 2019

Hi, I just noticed that the Pharo regexes do not understand non-greedy matches. A regex engine to be PCRE is kind of essential, not having '.*?' to be a parseable and working regex is a bummer. Are there any more powerful regex engines around for Pharo? I could not find any. Cheers, Manuel
