For example code, search the list archives. I know Mark Guzdial assigned a simple spreadsheet in Morphic as a team class assignment to his undergrads.

I just tried digging through

And couldn't find it. Great commentary from frustrated students (trouble with Squeak) and happy students (liking Squeak).

Karl/Frank,

Thanks for the pointer to Skeleton. It looks like a promising starting point for what I need.

Thanks, Phil

It's there (that's how I got it)... are you sure you're not filtering it out? It appears to be a somewhat dated package and suffers from some bit-rot (doesn't appear to work on the current release or even the 3.7 image I downloaded which it was released for.) Unless someone else has already done so, I was going to take a look and see if I can get it working again.

Thanks, Phil

It does look interesting. But it doesn't seem to be available via SqueakMap. Anyone had any luck downloading it?

You are correct... I was attempting to use it via 'new morph...' rather than the 'objects' menu option which does work correctly.

Thanks for the clarification re: Analyst as well as your work. This gives me another possible starting point.

The Analyst is not legally available at the moment (which is a pity, since it was a great piece of software at its time). We once considered buying the rights to it, but the price tag was a bit steep...

I have started implementing a simple spreadsheet in Squeak a while back. Like almost all of my toy projects, this never got finished but does have some usable code (see attached ZIP file.)

Open a new spreadsheet with "SpreadsheetGridMorph new openInWorld". You can enter numbers into the cells, and you may enter rules (start with "=", cell refs are written as A1, B1 etc). Currently implemented are +-*/ operations. The update machinery (which is the heart of a spreadsheet) works nicely.

Everything else is just "boring work to do" :-)

Cheers, Hans-Martin
