Re: [Pharo-dev] Non blurry Pharo 6.1 on Windows 10 and 4K display

I wish there was a solution on a Macbook pro - although with Bloc continuing to forge ahead we get closer and closer. I hadn’t realised that not only is it blurry when it uses pixel doubling - but you also get a smaller workspace as well. I happened to take a copy of an image and run it on an

Hi Pavel, Thanks a lot for the explanation. To summarise: 70-minimal is the one with monticello and metacello in it that can load code via the config handler. I was confused, because that failed for me. Now, first doing $ ./pharo pharo-minimal.image eval 'ZnMimeType initialize' fixed my

[Pharo-dev] Non blurry Pharo 6.1 on Windows 10 and 4K display

Just wanted to say that one can have Pharo on a 4K display without blurry fonts. https://i.imgur.com/FDeLFTN.png This requires to use the settings with Large or Huge fonts. And create a shortcut to Pharo.exe with the following settings in the properties of that shortcut:

Yeh, the most important thing is what Jan says there. What you want to ensure is that you don't corrupt your memory (and particularly the heap). If you do so (i.e., corruption) the only way you can come back is that you remember the old uncorrupted value and, given that everything is still

Yes I know thats what I am saying , that I dont think its a good idea to learn like this a language. In any case I am adding the Python code snippets and leave the teaching to you. It will take some time but will get it done, no big deal. On Sun, Oct 8, 2017 at 5:20 PM Peter Uhnák

Re: [Pharo-dev] Call for Ruby, Python, Java, Javascript Guide to Pharo

Well we certainly have a different way of thinking, I cannot get emotional attached to languages to the level you are passionate about Pharo. To me it’s important to have a general idea of languages and their capabilities as this helps me improve as a coder because obviously each language has its

Hernan I imagine that valgrind in a "assembler interpreter." It does not blindly execute the next instructions. May be put trap everywhere and I do not think that we can do the same but I'm curious to read the answer about this one. On Sun, Oct 8, 2017 at 10:00 AM, Hernán Morales Durand
