Re: [Pharo-users] Is it working yet?

1) I'm a Widows user and there is no keyboard mapping for switching the alt
to control keys

So? Alt on Windows replaces Cmd on OSX for Doits, Printits etc. Ctrl-X,V,C
on Win matches Cmd-X,V,C on OSX.

Control x,c,v,f,s all work as expected. For consistency, I would like
control p to print, control i to inspect, control e to explore, and control
d to doit.

2) I tried the debugger and the "Add breakpoint" menu command appears to
corrupt the stepping into behavior.

Adding self halt works nicer as the add/remove breakpoint basically does
that behind the scenes. 

Using the "Add breakpoint" menu item feels more lightweight and does not
affect the version history.

Each time you report an issue, "working yet" will get there much faster
for you.  Thanks for reporting these.

I'm a Windows 7 user and have no problems in my workflow - but I don't
know if thats just because I've adapted to the system-as-it-is or
otherwise.  Could you be more specific about what behaviour you want
from particular alt/control keys?

Nice find. Actually I've never used it but I've reproduced the issue
and opened a case for it.

You can sign up at pharo.fogbugz.com to subscribe to the case.

Anything else that you've found?


  
  Thanks,

[Pharo-users] Is it working yet?

[S. Garth Holland]

Hi Guys,
Every so often I spend a few minutes taking a look a Pharo or Squeak. I can see 
much improvement but before long I find something that does not work.
1) I'm a Widows user and there is no keyboard mapping for switching the alt to 
control keys
2) I tried the debugger and the "Add breakpoint" menu command appears to 
corrupt the stepping into behavior.
3) Next I tried the new Spec website.
Should the code on the Quick Start page read.
(ListModel new items: Smalltalk allClasses)openWithSpec. 

Thanks,
Steve
