I was trying to follow the guide here http://softwareengineering.vazexqi.com/2007/05/26/installing-packages-in-squ... to install the beautiful soup package. However I cannot locate the Squeakmap Package Loader.
I know the menu and interface has been updated since this tutorial(and it looks good) but I am looking in the "old desktop menu" but can't locate it.
Thanks
Sayth.
Yes it is, we are using Soup (http://www.squeaksource.com/Soup.html ) to parse html files. It's pretty good, though not perfect. There are also 2-3 other html parsers for Squeak. We're using this one because it's designed to be able to parse not standard compilant html files (which are very common) The tools for xml building are in the Squeak image, look for XMLNode and it's subclasses (XMLDocument, XMLNodeWithElements, XMLString, etc).

This package (and all packages on squeaksource.com can be installed with the Monticello Browser or with Installer. If you're using Squeak 4.1 or 4.2 alpha, then you can open Monticello Browser from the Tools menu of the Docking Bar (on the top of the screen). If you're using an earlier version of Squeak, then open the desktop menu, select Open... then select Monticello Browser (btw the SqueakMap Package Loader can also be found in this menu).
If the Monticello Browser is open, then add the repository of Soup and load the latest version. If you never used the Monticello Browser, then you'll find this link useful (the images are a bit outdated, but this part seems to be ok): http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/43#Opening%20a%20Repository
If you want to use Installer to install this package, then evaluate the following in a workspace:
Installer squeaksource project: 'Soup'; install: 'Soup'
