Is there a tandard way to attach context menus
by Herbert König 04 Nov '11

04 Nov '11

Hello all, is there a standard way to attach a context menu to a morph? It's fairly easy to do by checking for yellowButtonPressed and manually firing up a MenuMorph. But it is sufficient to implement #addCustomMenuItems:hand: to get an enhanced Halo menu while #addYellowButtonMenuItemsTo:event: and #hasYellowButtonMenu don't help. So is there a predefined way without everybody doing his own? Thanks, Herbert mailto:herbertkoenig@gmx.net

One click setup for 3.9 [win]
by Xinyu Liu 25 Jan '08

25 Jan '08

Hi people, I create a one click setup for newbies. It will do the following things after run: 1. download SqueakVM from ftp.squeak.org 2. download 3.9 images, soruces ftp.squeak.org 3. extract all things 4. create shortcut in desktop and program menu. I found the download process may cost some time, because there is only one download session. The installer can work only in Windows. It can be get from: http://liuxinyu95.googlepages.com/squeak3.9_win_installer.exe I created it with NullSoft installation system scripts. I shared the script code here: http://liuxinyu95.googlepages.com/squeak3.9_win_install.nsi You can change it when 3.9 package updates. Have fun with 3.9! Best regards. Yours, Liu

Is there a way to watch all the messages flowing in Squeak?
by andy.burnett＠knowinnovation.com 19 Jan '07

Although everything in Squeak is open, I find it quite hard sometimes to track down what is calling what. It would be great if I could open up a window to see which object is being called when I e.g. right click on the surface and bring up the World menu etc. Is there some way to turn on the debugger and just let it run, or something like that? thanks Andy B

squeak on the ps3
by Gary Frederick 09 Jan '07

Howdy I am interested in squeak on the sony ps3. I think it would be a great platform for education. The ps3 comes with Linux and is reported to support other operating systems (SQUEAK OS?). It has state of the art multimedia hardware. Yellow Dog Linux has already announced their Linux will be available on the ps3. The various coprocessors and other hardware would be a lot of fun with plugins. Squeak on a HD 1080p display!!! I think the ps3 could attract lots of kids that want to build media. We plan to play with a squeak wiki and croquette on the assumption that they would be great collaboration tools for working with kids and education. Etc etc enthuse enthuse ;-) If they sell the million consoles the first year... hmmm Is anyone else interested in a ps3 squeak? Gary

Version Control and new VMs
by Fabio Oliveira 05 Nov '06

05 Nov '06

Hi, I started to play recently with Squeak and Smalltalk. My impression is the Squeak and the Seaside Framework are moving targets, very exciting pieces of code, but if I start a project this week, in the next week will be available a new VM, or a new image, a new Seaside version, etc... Very good, because it means a very productive and creative community. But if I have a project, and want to migrate to a new image version? or to a new Seaside version? What is the right/easy way of doing this? Change sets? Maybe my question is how to do version control and manage conflicts? How to migrate to new images? Thanks, Fabio

Printing in Squeak
by Fabio Oliveira 31 Oct '06

31 Oct '06

Hi all! How can I access all printers in a network using Squeak? Exploring the image, I saw I can save/print all morphs converting it to a .ps file. But no clue about how to print to others printers in the network. I suppose this need to be/ is implemented as a VM plugin, because is a very specific OS feature, Am I right? Thanks! Fabio

I think you should looking at MessageSend an its classRefs. Perhaps you should look at Lukas package Announcements http://mc.lukas-renggli.ch/announcements/. There you can see something related what you want. Hope this helps.
