We're proud to announce the first public version of the Squeak Etoys interface with Arduino.
You can download it from here: http://tecnodacta.com.ar/gira/Arduino.3.rar It works in Windows and Linux (you will need to make a symlink in Linux to make it work with Squeak though, see README.txt for more information about the installation and usage).
I must warn you it's not really finished and it still contains a lot of bugs I haven't been able to fix. The one that I find most annoying occurs when you first connect the board (in Linux it happens every time, actually). If you leave a transcript open, a few seconds after you click "connect", you'll see the following error (which I really don't know how to handle so I just copied it to the Transcript):
a Firmata(xxxx): Error: subscript is out of bounds: 34
After that, the input pins no longer work and you need to "reactivate" them by reseting the slot "is reading digital pins". Once you've done that, it works ok.
Anyway, thanks for the interest you've shown in this project, I hope you'll find it useful. Any comments, critics, bug fixes, are greatly appreciated.
Cheers.
Hello Ricardo.
This is a great project.
I got it running in an OLPC XO-1, with some minor tweaks to the Arduino.sh script.
it would be nice to have a use tutorial with examples README.txt is not very informative,.i saw you get inspired by the fritzing project! way to go!.
Thanks again for your hard work

Hi! My name is Gonzalo. I work with Ricardo and Sebastian into this project.
Can you send us the modifications of the Arduino script? We made some tests but we had problems...
Thanks!

Sure..script attached.
The $SQUEAK_IMAGE variable should be set to the path of the Arduino.2.image
Also paths have to be adjusted to the actual paths of squeak in the system. the command:
find / -iname squeak*
should work to know the paths.

That's great! I tried to do it a few days ago but even though Arduino worked I ended up breaking the Etoys activity :P

Yes, you're right. I just didn't have time to do it.
.i saw you get inspired by the fritzing project! way to go!.
I'm glad you liked it, the Fritzing images are very nice.
Thanks again for your hard work
