There are some spelling issues in the PDF one finds at the Newton-Raphson link. "bellow" and "below" mean different things and sound quite different (BELL-owe vs b'-LOW). In "In the sketch bellow" the one you want is "below". "bloc" and "block" sound the same but also mean different things, and the Smalltalk [...] forms are "blocks" not "blocs". Is writing these interactive documents as much work as it looks like? On Sat, 27 Jul 2019 at 17:59, Hilaire <hilaire@drgeo.eu> wrote:
Hi Trygve,
Personal programming is something I always been fascinated by, since decades, to empower users.
In the domain of teaching, the concept can go as far as giving the ability to teachers to craft their own numeric tools in their respective area.
This is for this exact reason I ported DrGeo to Squeak, then Pharo, in 2005. The end user programming gives the power to design very advanced teaching models[1].
However, Smalltalk scripting can be tricky, so this is with profound interest I will read your paper in the later days.
