Re: [Pharo-users] [ANN] New GoFundMe Campaign

[horrido]

GemTalk Systems has just donated CAN$1,311. I greatly appreciate their
support.

I wonder if I can count on the other major Smalltalk vendors. Fingers
crossed.

[Pharo-users] Text-Editing UI

[Alex Landraitis]

Hello. I would like to modify the text-editing UI in Pharo to add some 
affordances I’m accustomed to from MacOS. Specifically, right now 
command(a.k.a. meta)-left/right-arrow moves one word left/right in Pharo, 
whereas on MacOS this is done with the option(a.k.a. alt)-key, and 
command-left/right-arrow moves to the start/end of the current visual line. 
Another MacOS convention I use a lot and would like in Pharo is triple-click to 
select a whole paragraph. And if I can implement that, I would also like to 
disable the corresponding Pharo convention (double click at the start or end of 
the paragraph).

Some smaller things that I’m also not used to: When moving the text cursor one 
word at a time, Pharo treats white space as words, whereas MacOS skips over 
white space. Conversely, when double-clicking to select a whole word, MacOS 
treats white space between words like a word, whereas Pharo selects the 
adjacent word.

So anyway, I’m wondering what I would have to modify to customize these UI 
conventions. I didn’t see anything relevant in the settings browser. (There was 
a "Skip over white space” option under "Text Editing," but it didn’t affect how 
the move-cursor-one-word-at-a-time keystrokes work, so I don’t know what it 
does.) Does anyone have any pointers on where these behaviors are encoded in 
the system? Or if someone has already posted a package for customizing this 
sort of thing?

[Pharo-users] Iceberg: Installing a baseline from a self hosted Git/Gitea repository branch

[Offray Vladimir Luna Cárdenas]

HI.

I'm migrating my packages from StHub to a self hosted Gitea instance. I
have already a test |BaselineOf| hosted there and referring to other
self hosted repositories. I'm following the [Baselines
documentation](https://github.com/pharo-open-documentation/pharo-wiki/blob/master/General/Baselines.md)
for all this. But when I try to load the baseline from the
|beta/migration| branch running the code below, I get the message |Could
not resolve: BaselineOfGrafoscopio in
https://code.tupale.co/Offray/Grafoscopio/src/branch/beta/migration/|.
How can I load Baselines hosted in a branch inside a self hosted
Git/Gitea repository?

|Metacello new baseline: 'Grafoscopio'; repository:
'https://code.tupale.co/Offray/Grafoscopio/src/branch/beta/migration/';
load |

|Thanks,|

Perhaps you should start by looking to see whether there is or are classes
already in the image that do what you want.

Look for classes by name (with wildcards) or for methods. For example, are
there any classes which implement #hours, #minutes, or #seconds (possibly
in the singular form).

Re: [Pharo-users] need suggestion badly

[Ben Coman]

Rather than spoon feed you for your masters project (and also your question
is a bit generic and hard to answer),
can you report the tutorial examples you've found for LibC, OSProcess and
OSSubProcess.
Then perhaps you can ask more focussed questions about any difficulties you
have doing those tutorials.

Please read http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

Apart from basic google search, a good place to search is...
http://forum.world.st/Pharo-f1294836.html
or focus your google search like this...  OSProcess  site:forum.world.st
Also, I'm not sure which book, but you may find something here...
https://books.pharo.org/

Sorry that you did not hear from me a long time but I was in a dark 
place for a long time.


but im back and have a question

I have to make a clock so the seconds and minutes schould not be above 60,

How can I take care of that ?

and can I put the code here on the class side on this given method

hour: anInteger minute: anInteger2
    self shouldBeImplemented

or schould I use that to make a call to the instance side and take care 
of there that the seconds and minutes are always valid.
