Hi Folks,
A few days ago I released SimpleMorphic for Pharo. SimpleMorphic is the Morphic implementation in Cuis. It is much smaller and simpler than the one in Pharo (and in Squeak). Please see http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/pipermail/pharo-project/2010-November/035302.ht... . A link to the code (for Pharo 1.2) is included.
While this release of the code is for Pharo, it shouldn't be a big deal to make it run on Squeak. My hope is that the Pharo community studies it in detail, adopts it, and eventually remove the old Morphic. For Squeak, maybe the same happens. Or perhaps there would be 2 Morphic UIs for Squeak: FullMorphic+Etoys and SimpleMorphic... So, what do you think?
I expect that this will fit nicely into Squeak's project structure:
Project MVCProjext MorphicProject SMxMorphicProject
So when you open a new project, the world menu would give the choice of "mvc project", "morphic project" or "SMx morphic project".
I do like the the prefix "SMx" by the way. It can mean whatever you want it to mean in the future, and I've learned that it is never a good idea to have the term "simple" in a class name ;-)
