Incomplete Seaside instruction on squeak.org?
by lostgweilo 26 Aug '15

26 Aug '15

Hello all, I need help to get Seaside up and running on Squeak. I have Squeak running (Squeak5.0, latest update: #15113, Image format 6521 (32 bit)) I went to http://www.seaside.st/ and clicked "Squeak Smalltalk" in the right column. This sent me me to http://squeak.org/projects/#seaside I clicked on "Quick Install" which opens a window with the following snippet: Installer squeaksource project: 'MetacelloRepository'; install: 'ConfigurationOfSeaside3'. (Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfSeaside3) load. I evaluated that, and it runs without error, but I don't know what to do next. How do I start Seaside? Nothing is getting served on localhost, and I don't know how to specify the adapter and the port or start any server. I tried to follow instructions from multiple different tutorials and they all want me to bring up a kind of Seaside control panel UI that appears to be Pharo specific and did not get loaded on Squeak (I can't find it in any menu). Or else, they refer to Kom server and Adapter classes that did not get loaded either, and I don't know where to get them from. I tried to load a Kom server package separately, and that did not seem to help, I still don't have any subclass of WAServerAdaptor loaded. I have been poking around for a few days now and I am getting nowhere. I hope someone can help me. -- Lostgweilo -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Incomplete-Seaside-instruction-on-squeak-org-tp484329… Sent from the Squeak - Beginners mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

How do I print?
by Kirk Fraser 24 Aug '15

Several different things are polymorphically called print. How do I send text to a peripheral printer? I found the menu item "Send contents to printer" and it produced walkback which says "MessageNotUnderstood: SmalltalkEditor>sendContentsToPrinter". Printer setup similarly failed yet after the OS supplied the customary sound that the printer was hooked up. This occurred in Squeak 4.5 under Windows 7. What would solve the problem best? Upgrading Squeak? Getting a different printer? Going back to Digitalk Smalltalk/V and a dot matrix ribbon printer where it did work years ago? Kirk

How to reopen a collapsed Morph from another Morph?
by Fredrik Alink 19 Aug '15

19 Aug '15

Hi, Let me shortly introduce myself. I'm new in this Forum, but not at all with Smalltalk. I did a private Smalltalk project under IBM VisualAge Smalltalk 6.0 (see http://imarch.free.fr/), but at a HD crash 10 years ago I lost both VisualAge and the project, except for the documentation. Recently I decided to rebuild my former private project and I installed Squeak on my iMac. Essentially, main differences between the two are VisualAge's Widgets against Squeak's Morphs. The Morph problem that I met: I create a Morph and from that I create another one and collapse the original one: (morphA := )MorphA new morphA: (statements) morphB := MorphB new. self collapse. When I close morphB, I want morphA to reopen, but I did not find any methods for that: morphB: (statements) morphA “uncollapse …... how?” self currentWorld removeMorph: self. I found a sort of “solution”, but is leaves a residu collapsed morph on the screen: morphB: (statements) morphA currentWorld removeMorph: morphA. morphA openInWorld. self currentWorld removeMorph: self. morphA reappears opened but the collapsed morphA is still visible on the display. “restore display (r)” does nothing, but clicking on any of the collapsed morph's actions x, v, + or – let it disappear. Remarks: Update Squeak ends up in an error message. Monticello Browser can't get over 30 versions and ends up in an error message. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/How-to-reopen-a-collapsed-Morph-from-another-Morph-tp… Sent from the Squeak - Beginners mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
