Nice! :) <http://forum.world.st/file/n4813138/font-importer.png> Two questions: 1. Who does the rendering? Looks kind of irregular... See attachment. 2. Can we move it to the "Tools" package?

New, faster RISC OS Squeak
by Chris Cunnington 01 Oct '16

I get a File 'System:Modules.StreamMan' not found error. I take it from here [1] [2] that StreamMan is short for StreamManager. And that it should be in the sharedsoundbuffer.!System folder. I shift+double clicked and followed !Shared.350.Modules to see StreamMan in this directory. The file appears present but still there is an error.

Time millisecondClockValue (was: The Trunk: Morphic-mt.1080.mcz)

Hacking during the switch from DST to normal time forced the user to wait one hour. Opening images from different time zones did also show this bug. What?! Time millisecondClockValue is supposed to be continuous. I’ll have to admit I didn’t follow the previous discussion too closely, but syncing millisecondClockValue to the wall clock seems like a very bad idea. - Bert -

UTCDateAndTime updated for Squeak 4.6/5.0
by David T. Lewis 08 Jul '16

08 Jul '16

UTCDateAndTime is a UTC based implementation of class DateAndTime with one instance variable representing the magnitude of the point in time, and another representing local time zone offset. I recommend loading with the SAR from http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/6197, as maintaining this in Montecello is problematic. After the 4.6/5.0 release, I would like to suggest moving Chronology out of the Kernel package into its own package, so that changes in Chronology can be maintained in Montecello without conflicting with the rest of Kernel. Spur notes: The Spur image provides a huge performance when loading this set of changes. There are two steps in the loading process in which all DateAndTime instances need to be #becomed into new instances. This is painfully slow in the traditional image (with or without Cog), and it is amazing fast in Spur. That said, there is a bug in the Spur VM (easily resolved I think) that produces incorrect time values. I'll post note about that on vm-dev. I would not recommend using UTCDateAndTime in Spur yet, other than just to see how amazingly fast it is compared to loading the same thing in a non-Spur image. Dave

Running headless on a Mac
by Frank Shearar 03 Jul '16

03 Jul '16

OK, so I've run out of patience in my flailing around. All I want is to run a headless image on a Mac (so I can unbreak the SqueakTrunk-OSX job, which _used_ to work). How? Do I say "-headless"? ("could not find module vm-display-X11") "-vm-display-null -headless"? ("squeak: could not find any sound driver") "-vm-sound-null -vm-display-null -headless"? ("could not find module vm-sound-null") I don't mind whether I use Cog or Interpreter, as long as I can just get an image running tests. Thanks! frank

Impossible to grab the scroll bar in the Transcript if...
by Eliot Miranda 08 Jun '16

08 Jun '16

Hi All, if the Transcript is open and reasonably full of text and scrolled os that the scroll bar is at the bottom right corner of the window one cannot (at least I cannot) grab the scroll bar to scroll the Transcript contents because the cursor is cooped into window resizing (the window resize cursor is shown). :-( _,,,^..^,,,_ best, Eliot

trunk update broken cuz there's an empty diffy version
by Eliot Miranda 24 Apr '16

24 Apr '16

Hi Guys, source.squeak.org/trunk's Morphic-eem.740(cmm.739).mcd is empty. How do we fix it? On a related note is there any way to get the updater to download full packages, avoiding the diffy versions? e.g a preference? -- best, Eliot

ftp down?
by Max Leske 20 Apr '16

20 Apr '16

Hi I’m trying to get the Fuel build set up for 5.0 but I can’t seem to connect to ftp.squeak.org. It’s available via http but not via ftp. Alternatively, how do you access that server for the Squeak builds? Should I use a different protocol? Cheers, Max

TTF import broken in 5.0?
by Vaidotas Didžbalis 17 Apr '16

17 Apr '16

Hello, Since the version 3.8 Squeak correctly displayed Unicode characters if glyphs were part of TTF file I imported. But Squeak Squeak 5.0 cannot do this. For example: 'ąčę' (asciiValues 269, 261, 281) is shown incorrectly. Bug? regards, Vaidotas

deselection broken in method list
by Eliot Miranda 17 Apr '16

17 Apr '16

Hi All, I depend heavily on fileOutAll in method list browsers. For example, I'm trying to create versions of the VM's boolean cheat code for the Sista bytecode set and do this by filing out the code for the Newspeak set and editing it. I tried to do this using "self systemNavigation browseAllSelect: [:m| ('*ooleanCheat*V*' match: m selector) or: [m sendsSelector: #booleanCheatV4:]]" to get a method list browser. Then I was expecting to be able to use file out with nothing in the list selected. This files out all methods in the list but... Deselection is broken! I can't deselect the first item and hence can only file out a single definition . Will whoever changed this please restore it asap? (in trunk) -- Mahalo, Eliot
