Hi Folks,
I'm pleased to announce that Cuis is available. Cuis is a Squeak distribution with emphasis on simplicity. You can download it from http://www.jvuletich.org/Cuis/Cuis1.0-0158.zip .
Thank you Juan, this looks & feels good :)
The web is not done yet.
Some of the main ideas and objectives for Cuis are:
- Aimed at Smalltalk developers and people learning about Smalltalk
- Close to Smalltalk-80 and Dan Ingalls' ideas
- Compatible with the latest Squeak VMs
- MIT license (based on the work by Yoshiki Ohshima, from VPRI)
- Evolution by removing unnecessary complexity, not adding it
- Reduced Morphic
I'm under the impression that system windows flash when focused; is this intended or can the flash be turned off somehow?
- No MVC or Etoys
:) there is still one sender of #isMorphic and it causes DNU when doing alt-W :(
- No M17N, Traits, Monticello, Omnibrowser, TTFonts, FreeType
I have many platform fonts which I access with the FT2 plugin, do you plan support or is there experience with FT2 running in Cuis?
- Includes support for building VM plugins, but not for building the VM
- Includes a set of high quality, antialiased StrikeFonts
Yay :) cr's and lf's no longer mysterious ghosts :)
- Backwards compatibility not important
:) can I have my (#scrollBarsOnRight false) preference back?
- Include code from the Squeak project (various versions, Mantis,
squak-dev, etc)
Cuis is under MIT license. It is the result of several years of cleanup, and it is currently being used in one commercial project. It is small and fast, and good for dev and learning. Besides PCs, it also runs great on older machines, PDAs and embedded devices.
I hope you like it.
Thank you Juan, good work! I'll use Cuis instead of Squeak3.10.2-7179-basic. Did I ask, can I have my (#scrollBarsOnRight false) preference back? :)
