Getting input from a pen tablet?
by Carla F. Griggio Dec. 12, 2012

Dec. 12, 2012

Hi everyone! I hope this is a stupid thing that is just driving me crazy because of my * newbieness* on the subject, but if I evaluate this: Sensor tabletPoint I get a PrimitiveFailed error. The plugin needed for getting input from pen tablets is JoystickTabletPlugin and is an external plugin of Cog. What do I need to do to make that message work? Thanks! Carla.

inserting special character 'vector angle' symbol
by Ben Coman Dec. 10, 2012

Dec. 10, 2012

I need to display electrical phasors (which are complex numbers in polar notation). This requires a special 'vector angle' symbol as shown http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/vol_2/chpt_2/5.html. What are my options for displaying such a symbol? â My searching only turned up 'Character characterTable' I wondered if I can replace one of those bitmap characters with my own. I also found an online character set converter http://kanjidict.stc.cx/recode.php which converted from the character from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8 "∠" but that result doesn't mean a lot to me. Hints would be greatly appreciated. cheers -ben

Legacy FileDirectory
by Camillo Bruni Dec. 5, 2012

Dec. 5, 2012

I finally found the motivation to properly package my compatibility package. http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~dh83/fisleg/packages/FileSystem-Legacy For people who want to migrate to 2.0 but depend on FileDirectory, they can load this compatibility package for 2.0 which will add a mock FileDirectory. It will mostly forward to FileReference. This is legacy software and should only be used for migration ;) best cami

What are slices?
by Sebastian Nozzi Dec. 4, 2012

Dec. 4, 2012

Hello all, I have some basic questions regarding "slices". On the pharo-project list I see people collaborating the whole time with "slices" (or uploading them). * What are they? * How are they used? * When to use them, when not? Thanks in advance! Sebastian

Sinatra-like framework?
by Sebastian Nozzi Dec. 4, 2012

Dec. 4, 2012

Hello, before I roll-out my own solution, I thought I should ask: Are you aware of a Sinatra-like web-framework for Pharo? http://www.sinatrarb.com/ Or can Zinc-HTTP do that more or less out-of-the-box? Thanks! Sebastian P.S. As far as I understood Seaside-REST is not aimed at web-pages.

http://www.zdnet.com/dell-xps-13-laptop-the-ubuntu-developer-edition-arrive… I have through last 4 years worked on Ubuntu customizing it for my work.. Never got around to establishing a baseline, I thought of setting up for sharing. Great to hear that Dell has worked on it and brought up a great hardware too to back it. Will get hold of this laptop... Can we rig up Pharo on to this ? Pharo already comes inbuilt with MC repo, Unit Test framework , profiling tools etc.. but eventually will need a lot more towards an enterprise grade deliverable, including Git / SVN, Web dev publishing, etc.. Kind of connected groovier combination of all elements that plays easy to get it going / deliver
