Recent Pharo's seem to lose first keystroke when you swap to them to paste?

by Tim Mackinnon

For a while I've noticed that every time I try and copy some text from a web browser or email and then paste it into pharo the first time it fails - and then thinking I didn't copy, I try it again and then realise that I have to paste twice - as the first one doesn't work. This didn't seem to do this in Pharo 9 (maybe 10) but its definitely the case in Pharo 11 and Pharo 12. This is on OSX (14.x) so I'm wondering if the same occurs in Windows or Linux or if its just my laptop? Its quite annoying and I'm wondering if it might be a side effect from the gradual UI changes in Pharo? I've looked in the issues tracker - but its a tricky thing to search for - and so I wanted to canvas experience and then will report it. Tim

Since this mailing-list is not a bug tracker I created an issue with the feature. https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/issues/16694 I will not comment this but smart people will easily guess. Now Pharo is more important than that.

[SOLVED] Shortcut CMD-v for version history

by Davide Varvello

Hi, If you too miss some shortcuts like... cmd-v to show the versions of a method, here is the solution, you have to add methodShortcutActivation to SycShowMethodVersionCommand class: SycShowMethodVersionCommand class >> methodShortcutActivation <classAnnotation> ^ CmdShortcutActivation by: $v meta for: ClyMethod asCalypsoItemContext HTH Cheers Davide

Re: 3D graphics?

by Noury Bouraqadi

Hi Kasper, I never did investigate using Pharo to building STL files. But, I did used PharoJS to build a 3D scene using the three.js Javascript library. The code is part of PharoJS examples Here is a live demo https://pharojs.org/Demos/PjThreeJsDemo/index.html More about ThreeJS: https://threejs.org/ I'll be happy to help with it and discuss anything 3D printing. I am fond of 3D printing since I bought my first printer in 2017. You can find some of my prints https://nootrix.com/tag/3d-printing/ Noury On May 24 2024, at 2:28 pm, Kasper Osterbye <kasper.osterbye(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Cheers all > > I am looking for classes which can be used to build 3D pictures.

3D graphics?

by Kasper Osterbye

Cheers all I am looking for classes which can be used to build 3D pictures. Spheres, Boxes, etc. It is a fun thing for me to build, but on the other hand, if it is already done, I will use them. Also, I am interested in 3D figures being outputtet in STL files. Is that done? It is an easier thing for me to build (have done some work already). I want the stl format as I can pass that on to 3D printers. Are there anyone else who have worked from Pharo to 3D printing (prusa for example). Best, Kasper

DATE CORRECTION - UKSTUG Meeting - Javier Pimas -- Live Metacircular Runtimes: The case of Egg Smalltalk - 29 May 2024

by UK Smalltalk

Egg is a new Smalltalk dialect that was designed from scratch to incorporate some interesting features: A module system with namespaces that replaces the old-good Smalltalk global. Dynamic identifiers, which are bound lazily similarly to how methods are lazily bound. A multi-VM architecture, with different VM implementations written in C++, Pharo, JavaScript and Egg. The Egg-in-Egg VM is special in that the VM component is just another module of the system, creating what we have named Live Metacircular Runtimes (LMRs) [1]. The most interesting characteristic of LMRs in Smalltalk is that they can be developed using standard Smalltalk tools, which shorten feedback loops when doing VM development. During the talk I'll show a little bit about Egg and its LMR, and how not only VM developers get more productive when writing VMs, but also application developers can better understand what the VM does behind the scenes. [1] https://arxiv.org/abs/2312.16973 - Live Objects All The Way Down: Removing the Barriers between Applications and Virtual Machines Javier Pimas is a fan of high-level low-level programming. He has been successfully mixing Smalltalk and assembly code for more than a decade. Within Bee Smalltalk, SqueakNOS and now Egg Smalltalk projects he has been trying to make live-programming of system-level concerns more practical to application programmers. Javier works for Labware and Quorum Software, where he applies his expertise to real-world challenges while pursuing a PhD in Computer Science at Buenos Aires University. This will be an online meeting from home.

[ANN] Package Formulas v1

by HernÃ¡n Morales Durand

Hi everyone. I've updated package formulas to work with Pharo 12 and Pharo 13. You can find the project here: https://github.com/hernanmd/package-formulas Let me know if there's any features you would like to see implemented. Cheers, HernÃ¡n
