Awfull mistake by me:-(
by karl 30 Jan '06

30 Jan '06

In what I thought would be a good effort for the community I managed to mess up www.squeak.org And the last backup of the image was done a long time ago :-( I'm truly sorry about this. All is not lost I hope but I'm not sure how to proceed with recovering the data I thrashed. I'll pack up my webteam leader effort once the mess is cleaned up, I'm not worthy... Karl

[ANN] SqueakLight status
by Lic. Edgar J. De Cleene 30 Jan '06

People what think Spoon is too small and Squeak 3.9 is too big. Enero (January) is at end, Summer is very nice here and as part of students training all this days we "discover" many things, have a lot of fun and continue finding classes and methods what SqueakLight need. When this happen, we take the code of Squeak 3.9a6705. The current version is SqueakLight3.7.4.zip and is on my ftp and in http://www.4shared.com/file/715982/6db2fc3d/SqueakLight374.html , just in case you have troubles. The current fixes is 3.7.1 fixes.6.cs Also in my ftp and in http://www.4shared.com/file/757451/16442ed2/371_fixes6.html If you wish keep update, download, go to change sorter and clear the previous fixes and fileIn the new. ftp://elpelotero@200-122-104-133.cab.prima.net.ar/ password: elpelotero And if really wish know what could do feeding it. http://200-122-104-133.cab.prima.net.ar:8888 (Swikis) Ani swiki is keeping for now the SqueakLight development news. Now what I figure how set up and run an AniAniWeb , again say MUCHAS GRACIAS to Jeff by veeeery cool work. http://200-122-104-133.cab.prima.net.ar:9000/seaside/blog/SummerTeam/ http://200-122-104-133.cab.prima.net.ar:9000/seaside/blog/SqueakLightChronil es / http://200-122-104-133.cab.prima.net.ar:8085 "ServerInfo, form here you culd see what is running and try" All running in SqueakLight, open to who care. >From 09:00 to 23:00 GMT (aproximate) http://wiki.gnulinex.org/squeakros (hosting provided by good people in Spain) And maybe the 470.000 Euros do what follow my old advice. Find a Spanish speaking kid near to you and exchange Squeak learning for Spanish learning and both, you and the kid start to have a bigger world.

Re: [Squeak-fr] fin de l'experience
by nicolas cellier 30 Jan '06

> Salut > > nicolas notre experience a berne est qu'un etudiant tres bon met une > semaine pour apprendre, > un bon 3 semaines, 1 mois et plus pour qq de normal. > Je suis d'accord, mon propos n'est de décourager personne. On peut effectivement commencer à programmer très rapidement. J'ai attaqué à mes débuts un prototypage rapide de calcul formel et de tracés de courbe (avec impression sur imprimante à aiguilles pour le côté rétro). En C ou en LISP j'aurais fait autrement, et je sais pour avoir pratiqué que j'aurais mis beaucoup plus de temps. Le projet que l'on a démarré par la suite, sans Smalltalk, on ne l'aurait simplement pas commencé, question de coût et de moyens. Seul, il faut tout de même plus de trois semaines pour utiliser efficacement une bibliothèque aussi riche. Même si aujourd'hui on peut compter sur plus de monde pour être aidé. > Maintenant le refactoring browser on peut just l'utiliser sans savori > ce que c'est ni aller le pacthe :). > Tout à fait d'accord, je le trouve très utile, et je ne le regarde pas (trop de code). Mais ce n'est pas ce que j'ai fait au début de mon apprentissage: j'ai exploré le code et c'est exactement ce que veut faire andrei en bon autodidacte. Je persiste à penser que c'est un bon réflexe dans une petite image, mais que cela devient plus dur dans une image actuelle. J'essaie encore d'explorer un minimum ne serait-ce que pour savoir ce qui existe, si cela répond à mes besoins, et si oui, quel meilleur exemple de programmation que le code existant ? On trouve aussi dans le code des autres, des solutions techniques que l'on peut transposer à son problème. Smalltalk est lisible. Un code lisible vaut bien toutes les docs erronées non mises à jour ou incomplètes. Je ne pense pas qu'on voit beaucoup de doc détaillée d'implémentation dans un projet Smalltalk comme on en voyait dans le V logiciel traditionnel. En résumé, le browser et l'accessibilité du code sont bien un trait de caractère fondamental de Smalltalk, et il faut s'en servir. Je suis convaincu que c'est pour cela que GNU Smalltalk n'a jamais décollé malgré son grand age (pas de browser au début...), il a fallu attendre Squeak pour une version non commerciale décente. Je peste juste contre ces classes non commentées, toujours plus nombreuses, tout dialecte confondu... mais là c'est le côté râleur du français qui reprend le dessus. > Moi je ne connais que tres peu de Squeak. Je ne cherche pas a tout > comprendre :) > > Stef Donc, on en est tous là, c'est inexorable. Au pire, cela peut à terme limiter la réutilisabilité du code pour laquelle Smalltalk est encore le champion je crois, l'homogénéïté des solutions et peut être aussi l'efficacité des programmeurs, trop de richesses... Mais la profusion n'est pas un problème propre à Smalltalk... Keep it small is a dream ?

high CPU usage in mvc projects
by Wolfgang Helbig 29 Jan '06

29 Jan '06

hi, when I open a MVC project, CPU usage jumps from under one percent to near 100 percent, and stays there. I goes down to about 60 percent, if I open a workspace window and to about zero percent while a desktop menu is opened. With morphic projects, the CPU usage is always near zero. This is with the 3.7-7 VM for Unix (solaris-x86) and an 3.8 image. When I start an 2.0 image with the same VM, I get 100% CPU usage even in a morphic project. Any ideas, where to look at? Thank you, Wolfgang

Select Text entered since the last mouse click

Hi, the Red Book describes that feature of the text editor in the workspace, that I miss in Squeak. The "escape" key selects the text entered since the last mouse click. Is this feature still available in Squeak? thanks, whg
