Write documentation with wiki like syntax -- how do I activate the rendering?

by H. Hirzel

Hello The Pharo 6.1 help system has an entry 'Write documentation with wiki like syntax' [1] If I follow these instructions my book named 'The name of the book I want to write' appears in as an entry in the list. But the wiki content is not rendered. Which additional steps are needed so that the wiki content is rendered? I want to get a result such as the 'Welcome to Pharo 6' page, see screen shot. Thank you for the answer in advance. Hannes [1] Usage: - Create a class-side method on the class you want to put documentation. - Add the pragma <wikiStyleHelp:> with the title of the book as parameter - The method should answer the documentation as a String (using Pier syntax. See http://www.piercms.com/doc/syntax ). Example: MyClass class>>aMethod <wikiStyleHelp: #'The name of the book I want to write'> ^ ' ! Section 1 Some text for this section !! Subsection 1.1 !!! Subsection 1.1.1 !! Subsection 1.2 ! Section 2'

[DesktopManager] Ctlr - D (do-it) is blocked after installation of desktop manager

by Torsten Bergmann

Hi Hannes, The desktop manager uses "key combinations" always starting with CTRL+D (like "Desktop") so one can easily remember the possibilities: CTRL + D followed by CTRL + DââââDesktop Displayâ to display and switch between all desktops CTRL + D followed by CTRL + AââââDesktop Addâ to add a new desktop CTRL + D followed by CTRL + NââââDesktop Nextâ to go to next desktop CTRL + D followed by CTRL + PââââDesktop Previousâ to go to previous desktop CTRL + D followed by CTRL + BââââDesktop Backgroundâ to choose a background CTRL + D followed by CTRL + FââââDesktop Fullscreenâ to switch fullscreen option as can be seen in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpLY7uQnPsg but unfortunately CTRL+D ("single key") is also used for the "do it" in a playground. As the shortcut handler of the desktop manager is only triggered when the full key sequence is pressed the code can only check if the active hand is in an editor and allow the do it then. At least that is the only solution I've found to this problem so far. This leads to the unfortunate effect you have to press CTRL+D twice in the playground once the desktop manager is loaded. But nonetheless the "do it" is still possible - you only have to hit CTRL+D twice in the playground. Hope this helps! Bye T.

Ctrl-g will execute the selected expression and open a new tab inspecting the resulting object. Cheers, Alistair

Difference between 'do-it' (ctrl d) and 'do-it and go' (ctrl -g)?

by H. Hirzel

Hello In Pharo 6.1 what is the difference between the 'do-it' (ctrl d) and 'do-it and go menu entry in the playground (see screen shot)? Regards Hannes

[DesktopManager] Ctlr - D (do-it) is blocked after installation of desktop manager

by H. Hirzel

Hello After I have installed the DesktopManager in Pharo 6.1 (labelled as 6.0) I cannot use the ctrl D shortcut to issue a 'do it' command. It interferes with the ctrl-D short cut system of the desktop manager. The do-it shortcut do execute a Smalltalk expression is more important for the than the direct access to the desktop manager. How can I resolve this? Menu 'Tools -> System -> Keymap browser' gives a list of key mapping assignments, but does not allow to edit them. Regards Hannes

Re: [Pharo-users] [ann] moldable editor - transcript with adornments

by H. Hirzel

Great idea to introduce transcript next to get a builder object which in turn then implements the extended API! And the extended API allows to embed expandable elements.

Do you mean applications, or infrastructure?

[ann] moldable editor - transcript with adornments

by Tudor Girba

Hi, We are happy to announce that the moldable editor helped us create a richer transcript: GT Transcript. The transcript is traditionally a stream of plain text. As we now have an elaborate editor, we can take advantage of it to help us display richer representations. The API is backward compatible with the existing transcript. To enable the new features, we introduced a builder. For example: transcript nextPutAll: âsomethingâ becomes transcript next putAll: âsomethingâ and after #next we can add multiple attributes that we want to affect the following insertion of a text. Below you can find an example detailing most of the API. The most notable additions is the support for expandable adornments. For example, #showException: provides an in-place expansion of the stack of the exception context. To get an idea of how this tool can be useful, take a look at the following video showing the visual logging of a Bloc animation: https://youtu.be/9VATYNaLwJY The code can be found in the new incarnation of GToolkit: Iceberg enableMetacelloIntegration: true. Metacello new baseline: 'GToolkit'; repository: 'github://feenkcom/gtoolkit/src'; load. Cheers, The feenk team -- www.tudorgirba.com www.feenk.com âSoftware has no shape.
