Putting (or docking) a Workspace inside a window
Hello, I am working on a project called MathsOntologie, which is basically a French translation for Smalltalk (at least the methods which can be useful for maths). It works well already but my colleagues ask for a friendlier GUI than Pharo's (!). Then I wish to go on programming as I am doing right now (writing the MathsOntologie script inside the Workspace and sending messages to the Transcript) but within a window. My colleagues want that there be a "Run" button which would automatically ctrl-A then ctrl-D; I want the syntactic highlighting... My idea is to divide the window in frames and use one of these frames as a workspace and another one as a transcript. But TextMorphForEditView new don't work (error message: don't understand "content"...). Is there a simple way to build and use a window which would work like a browser, with syntax highlighting?

Have a look at Athens-Playground by Esteban Lorenzano. It does something like this, a kind of workspace in a window with a "go" button that opens another window with the results (should be combinable into one window): http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~estebanlm/Storm/packages/Athens-Playground -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Putting-or-docking-a-Workspace-inside-a-window-tp46688...

Great, I'll have a look and (hopefully) integrate this inside MathsOntologie. Now they will see! On Sat, Feb 9, 2013 at 9:57 PM, MartinW <wm@fastmail.fm> wrote:

Something like the STicky may be: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9uUIEaGyoU El 09/02/2013 13:54, Alain Busser escribió:

Looks promising, I love the balloons, which are a good way to help the user. Anyway I'll need more frames: 1: The Text Editor 2: The Transcript 3: A graphical frame to dock the Morphs (for example, histograms) 4: A panel for all the buttons That makes at least 4 frames. And I'll need some time to hack all this, so I may ask further questions within a few days/weeks... Alain On Sat, Feb 9, 2013 at 10:30 PM, Hernán Morales Durand < hernan.morales@gmail.com> wrote:
