Please let's not exaggerate. That said, I would also like to have a smaller and more malleable system, in that I agree with you, but that takes time and work, and I see few people that is diving in the insides of Pharo to help get us something in that direction.

You can also do: FileSystem disk workingDirectory parent / 'public'.

Hi, do not forget also that there is an entire chapter on FileSystem in here: http://files.pharo.org/books-pdfs/deep-into-pharo/2013-DeepIntoPharo-EN.pdf And I particularly recommend everybody dealing with files to read about how to manage encodings in here: http://files.pharo.org/books-pdfs/entreprise-pharo/2016-10-06-EnterprisePha… On Mon, Mar 12, 2018 at 7:09 AM, john pfersich <jpfersich(a)gmail.com> wrote: > What OS are you using?

Re: [Pharo-users] Please rejoin Discord

by Dimitris Chloupis

Because I posted a new link it was misinterpreted that the old one did not work which is not the case. Yeah changing it back to the old one is the right choice. I created the new one only for convenience but as I said we already have a ton of invite links. In any case the old one will remain and wont bet changed, unless Dicscord decides something stupid which I doubt will do because already too many people (outside our community) that use Discord depend on the invite links not to change and remain the same.

Hi, Here is an update of the work on Bloc, Brick and GT. As always, please do let us know what you think. Bloc: - Improved the deletion in the text editor and covered the scenarios with examples - Worked on the text selection. Still work needed for selection to be production ready: https://twitter.com/feenkcom/status/969183393547259905 - Balanced rope structure for even better performance of the editor. Overall, the performance of the text editor improved 2x. https://twitter.com/feenkcom/status/971009488789516288 - Selectable curves: https://twitter.com/feenkcom/status/967690664589910016 Brick: - Resizer overlay. The tweet below also shows how we can now easily script dragging behavior in examples: https://twitter.com/feenkcom/status/971990195011690496 GToolkit: - Diagrammer is a new engine for drawing diagrams based on Bloc. This is the first version, and we will continue working on it in the following weeks, so stay tuned for more news. This is also one of the first Bloc applications: https://twitter.com/feenkcom/status/972243179599794180 - Andrei put together a beautiful description of a scenario in which an application is molded interactively in the Playground & Inspector. The subject is face recognition, and the resulting code is both functional and explainable. This is intended as a tutorial material that shows what moldable development means and how it changes the way we program: https://twitter.com/feenkcom/status/972907051448979458 Have fun, The feenk team www.feenk.com -- www.tudorgirba.com www.feenk.com "To utilize feedback, you first have to acquire it."
