First, you need a user to edit. I can create for all who need that. Then you have (at the end) the help of how the book works: http://book.pharo-project.org/book/bookHelp it could be improved for sure. cheers On Thu, Jun 2, 2011 at 9:22 PM, Bernardo Ezequiel Contreras < vonbecmann(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > it would be nice if you explain how to contribute to the book. > in my case i have no idea how to do it. > thanks > > > On Thu, Jun 2, 2011 at 1:40 PM, Helene Bilbo < > thereluctantprogrammer(a)fastmail.fm> wrote: > >> >> âsimondenierâ wrote: >> > >> > I'm wondering.

So this chapter in itself needs to be reworked. That's the next step. I'm wondering. Does people take a look at this online book from time to time? Do you think it's a valuable tool? Personally I would love to see a doc website with the API/comment extracted from source code and tests, and people commenting to enhance/points to relevant information - a bit like the CODT contest - this could later be integrated in the source code, etc, and you have the round trip. Bonus if people can use an online sandbox and run harmless doits in the browser :) I always think it's a good to have such exposition on the web. -- Simon Denier

Re: [Pharo-users] TilingWM - layout policies

So we can open several editors that don't eat space. Then we can add a TWM Layout strategy that put only one browser on top and all editor windows tiled below. Another way is that browsing panes can be hidden by default (add a setting for this behavior) so it shows only method / class definition. Add a button to toggle browsing panes visibility (may be easier to do this).
