Demand for os-x 10.4 (Tiger) Dashboard widgets has been high, so I've been fiddling. Thus find on my idisk, a Squeak dashboard widget.

You must have installed the SqueakLand image/vm & browser plugin via http://squeakland.org/plugin/installers/mac-x-std.html I will of course assume any macintosh os-x users on this list have done this step.
Then grab the widget, it is a
For now it's more proof concept and opens up at 500x500 using the Default.png Right click on bottom right to resize within the 500x500 area. For some reason resizing bigger is noticed by Squeak but the redrawing at say 600x600 is wrong, the port does not get bigger than 500x500. You cannot drag objects in squeakland, this is a limitation I'm attempting to resolve. I suspect you can alter/create project in the normal squeakland environment, then alter the widget's html to start the widget with a project of your choice.
Things to do: a) The Default.png and Icon.png are quick choices, someone who sends me mail and examples could lobby for changes. b) Interesting enough each invocation of the widget starts another Squeak VM so you can have multiple independent VM running, they all share the same read-only space, and can write to the My Projects folder, not sure what the implications of doing this are, but it seems ok.
I will note the plugin starts with src="http://www.squeakland.org/projects/EToy-Template.001.pr" This can be change to start with any project you choose, I hope to add the ability to set a preference and set the project of your choice.
