Re: [Pharo-users] [ann] moldable editor - with expandable elements
by Tim Mackinnon
I think you pose some interesting design challenges - but it's worthy of experimentation.
I share Denis' enthusiasm to build something better - but it's true it's not an easy problem space.
I'm a big fan of GTInspector, but sometimes I slide across and lose my context (not always, and not for all types of problems).
For unique extractions - inlining is a no brainer (it's just like code folding in many editors). For non-unique, maybe something in the gutter might let you easily flip... I don't know, but I'm not convinced our current way is always optimal.
Still, the whole moldable idea is to make it easy to experiment - and that's the cool bit. That's where we thrive.

The Spec UI Framework. first translation to korean finish.
by peter yoo
hello. for pharo guys. Long time no see.
It is not easy for Korean people to study pharo. Very few people use
smalltalk. Of course, it is hard to find Korean language resources.
Recently I went to find the spec framework to study Pharo. Of course I
looked at morphic designer in squeak, but I believe in pharo team.
I have translated it with the help of google for those who want to study. I
refer to the pillar source of git. I wanted to work with pdf, but I know
xetex, but I do not know about pillar and luatex. So I put it on the wiki.
Thank you for always making good pharo.

pillar image in external link (or html a tag)
by Peter Uhnák
Hi,
how can I embed an image into an anchor in Pillar?
I've tried
*+Pharo>https://pharo.org/web/files/pharo.png+>http://pharo.org/*
I've also tried to create document by hand and export it, but every single
exporter failed on it.
doc := PRDocument new
add: (PRExternalLink new
reference: 'http://pharo.org/';
add: (PRFigure new
reference: 'https://pharo.org/web/files/pharo.png';
add: (PRText content: 'Pharo');
yourself

Thanks,

Re: [Pharo-users] [ANN] Pharo wiki , is here
by Offray Vladimir Luna Cárdenas
Thanks for keep me posted about your experiments. I would like to know
where the current interface doesn't suit your needs/tastes and how easy
was to use/extend the tool. I think that mind mapping problem would be
particularly well suited for your GUI approaches.
Cheers,
Offray

mind mapping is an interest of mine too, though i never tried to make one

Re: [Pharo-users] [ANN] Pharo wiki , is here
by Offray Vladimir Luna Cárdenas
That would be pretty interesting and yes, it is under MIT.
On custom GUI's I have thought about a mind mapping interface for
Grafoscopio, for presentations. I would like to stretch the tree/graph
metaphor so it can make what we do with different metaphors right now on
"offimatics" (writing, calculation and presentation), so this custom
metaphors are interesting to me.
Cheers,
