Great. This platform is a joy to work with and becomes better all the time. 2015 will be a great Pharo4 year :-) Phil On Fri, Nov 7, 2014 at 7:47 AM, Marcus Denker <marcus.denker(a)inria.fr> wrote: > > On 06 Nov 2014, at 21:59, phil(a)highoctane.be wrote: > > Yes, this has been annoying for a long time. > > Does backport means that it will be in the downloadable image of 3.0? > > Thanks a lot! > > > Yes!

> > Ok. Could you please open a bug report on that for the inspector? Since as Nicolai pointed out there is this "14250 <https://pharo.fogbugz.com/default.asp?14250> Enable large file support on linux", there is probably no point in creating an extra one. I built custom VM with _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 and it seems to hold, so thank you. No problem. Here you go: > GLMTabulator new with: [ :tabulator | > tabulator column: #favorites; column: #files span: 5. > tabulator transmit to: #favorites; andShow: [ :a | > a list > title: 'Favorites'; > display: { 'test' asFileReference .

I will have to study this tomorrow. UITheme builder fileOpen: 'Import model from MSE file' extensions: #('mse'). I am aware of this one, but it has all the issues mentioned in the first (and following) posts, since it is basically same as FileBrowser. That is why I was looking for an alternative. They would just need to be hooked in the right place instead of the funny > text field. Why? From what I understood the way to build what I want would be a combination of GLM* browsers you mentioned above and in such configuration I do not see why would I need to hook up the default browsers.

Re: [Pharo-users] FileBrowser confusion

by Peter UhnÃ¡k

The large file seems to return false on most things (also creationTime)... so this would need some tinkering. Also I am confused as to why this happens. Failing actual opening of the file would be understandable but these (size, creationTime) are just some inode data, but I could be (and probably am) wrong.

Also as mentioned above it shows hidden folders. Hidden folders are hidden for a reason so I would expect navigator to respect it. And last (for now) is sorting names. By default it doesn't sort and if i sort by name it mixes files and folders. But there is really no point in iterating these issues... all I want to have is regular FileOpen/FileClose dialog.
