Hi Paul When you commit your changes to your fork you can cherry pick what you want to save. On the left you have a item list with tick and you can untick them. Only the selected items will be committed. Let us know if this is not working for you. Stef

Learn Pharo - Not Working

Hi keith did you look at the Pharo mooc? http://mooc.pharo.org <http://mooc.pharo.org/> Because there are many videos explaining interaction. To execute an expression you should either select or if it is on one line you can just use command-D or command-P Stef

That reminds me - while I fixed the senders/implementers search commands to intelligently look for the nearest selector to the cursor (in pharo7), I forgot about workspace evaluation - doit or printit should find the nearest complete expression (even if multiline) and evaluate that - unless you specifically highlight something. It makes it much more efficient to then examine things quickly. Tim

I think they call the 64-bit stuff âexperimentalâ so it best to learn on the 32-bit stuff. Then you can help the developers debug the 64-bit stuff. /*âââââââââââââââââ-*/ Sent from my iPhone https://boincstats.com/signature/-1/user/51616339056/sig.png See https://objectnets.net and https://objectnets.org > On Feb 2, 2019, at 11:59, magicspeller <pharo(a)magicspeller.info> wrote: > > John Pfersich wrote >> Did you use the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version?

I just built the 32-bit Windows VM from opensmalltalk-vm on Windows 7. Here's what I got. Pharo.exe works fine. Volume in drive C has no label. Volume Serial Number is FCE0-E161 Directory of C:\pkg\pharo6vm32 03/02/2019 12:54 AM 2,875,628 Pharo.exe 03/02/2019 12:54 AM 2,875,628 PharoConsole.exe 03/02/2019 12:54 AM 9,567,149 PharoConsoleUnstripped.exe 03/02/2019 12:54 AM 9,567,149 PharoUnstripped.exe 4 File(s) 24,885,554 bytes 0 Dir(s) 33,491,107,840 bytes free I think the stripping comes from build.win32x86/common/Makefile starting line 309: ifneq ($STRIPEXE,) $(STRIPEXE): $(VMEXE) $(STRIP) --strip-unneeded -o $(STRIPEXE) $(VMEXE) $(OBJCOPY) --add-gnu-debuglink=$(VMEXE) $(STRIPEXE) $(STRIPCONSOLEEXE): $(CONSOLEVMEXE) $(STRIP) --strip-unneeded -o $(STRIPCONSOLEEXE) $(CONSOLEVMEXE) $(OBJCOPY) --add-gnu-debuglink=$(CONSOLEVMEXE) $(STRIPCONSOLEEXE) endif The build output is in build.win32x86/pharo.cog.spur/build/vm. I copied the *exe and *.dll into c:\pkg\pharo6vm32 and run the VM from there. Oh, my Linux VM (also self-built) isn't stripped. % file ~/pkg/pharo6vm64/pharo /home/pierce/pkg/pharo6vm64/pharo: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, BuildID[sha1]=79f0524e9ecda9a3a3143fb6ba4ff45f552e05dd, with debug_info, not stripped
