Hi all,

Further to my previous email, I decided to install OSProcess/VMMaker. VMMaker installs a version of the freetype package, or rather fails to do so. This appears to be because it use _ for assignment, rather :=. Unfortunately, incompletely installing the package appears to have broken the preferences browser (attempting to launch it from the main menu results in an exception).

First, why are you loading VMMaker?� I guess you don't need this package if you won't compile the plugin by yourself.

Second, Pharo 1.0 or Pharo 1.1 ?

I guess Pharo 1.1. Can you try evaluating:

Scanner allowUnderscoreAsAssignment: true.

Is there a way to undo the changes from the various packages loaded, and thus return my image to a sane state, or an alternative way to enable _, so that loading can continue?

There is in Tools -> "Recent submissions" that may help you.

In addition, you can take a text editor and open the .changes file and recover your lost code.

�

Marcin
