Pharo 3 / osx / Keyboard shortcuts ?
by sergio_101 May 20, 2014

May 20, 2014

i noticed last night that the keyboard shortcuts are a bit different in pharo 3. for instance, to when i mouse over a method, to run the tests, i see there are two keys listed, j, m. i can't seem to figure out which modifiers are required to make this work. i am also not sure how i would go about finding out which functions j and m would perform. run 'this' test, run 'all' tests. any ideas? thanks! -- ---- peace, sergio photographer, journalist, visionary #BitMessage BM-2D8VWUJSS41RFKh1ec83preVabHrnniExa http://www.Village-Buzz.com http://www.ThoseOptimizeGuys.com http://www.CodingForHire.com http://www.coffee-black.com http://www.painlessfrugality.com http://www.twitter.com/sergio_101 http://www.facebook.com/sergio101

compiling Pillar files locally (for LaserGame book)
by Ben Coman May 20, 2014

May 20, 2014

I've haven't been able to find any instructions on how to compile Pillar files locally. Any pointers? Is TEXLive required for the PDF compilation? Maybe the setup I reported [1] for PBE1 on Windows would be similar? However I now have access to a Mavericks machine. Would that be a better option? What tools would you use to edit with ? (this is my first Mac - something to google for would be useful) I see that [2] runs ./download.sh so perhaps that is all that is required in this case for the LaserGame book?

Slots
by Thomas Worthington May 19, 2014

May 19, 2014

I notice that "Slots" are slated for addition in Pharo 3.0. Is there anywhere I can see which model of "slots" is being suggested? I'm not sure that slots, in the sense of Javascript, are a good idea generally and, in the broader context, I'm very unhappy with the idea of messing with Smalltalk's generally clean syntax by adding new language features. Could the desired effects be achieved by subclassing Behavour or somesuch high-level approach? -- Thomas Worthington
