Xtreams docs (previously: Tools for easy subtext extraction from text)

by Peter Uhnak

Ah, I now see my googing issue, because apparently noone knows whether the name is Xtreams or Xstreams If I google 'Pharo Xtreams' (which is the correct name it seems) I get fuckall, but if I google 'Pharo Xstreams' I get the link as second result, just because someone misspelled the filename. -_- Is there a build for the PharoLimbo, or do I have to compile it myself?

Yes I should finish to convert everything. I hope that in Pharo 70 we will be able add Xtream like library and remove the old stream but this is large task. stef On Sat, 21 Jan 2017 21:06:34 +0100, phil(a)highoctane.be <phil(a)highoctane.be> wrote: > There is also this > > https://github.com/SquareBracketAssociates/PharoLimbo/tree/master/Xtreams > > > > On Sat, Jan 21, 2017 at 3:08 PM, Peter Uhnak <i.uhnak(a)gmail.com> wrote: >> On Sat, Jan 21, 2017 at 02:01:59PM +0100, Denis Kudriashov wrote: >>> Hi. >>> >>> 2017-01-20 16:15 GMT+01:00 Peter Uhnak <i.uhnak(a)gmail.com>: >>> >>> > In Ruby it is dead simple: >>> > str[/\[(.*)\]/,1].hex # "=> 37" >>> > >>> >>> I always wondering when people think it is dead simple. >>> I use streams for such cases.

Re: [Pharo-users] super super

Out of curiosity, wouldn't it be better to temporarily duplicate the code in your class and talk with the upstream owner? (That would be my usual approach.)
