I do not completely buy the documentation argument. It is not a big deal saying when you read “Workspace” in a book, it is actually “Playground”. People even figure this out alone. The code browser mentioned in Pharo by example is fairly different from the one we have currently. It even has a

Re: [Pharo-dev] playground vs workspace

Hi doru I would like to have playground be named playground and that we keep workspace but I would like to change the name to SimpleNoteEditor. I do not like the idea that we are all forced to use one single tools. We are adults. Stef Hi, As you might see, the GTPlayground is called

+1 And there is plenty of blog post to turn them into chapters. If everything we produce would have this documentation quality I would not be worried. Le 8/12/14 05:33, Sven Van Caekenberghe a écrit : More documentation is always better, but you can hardly accuse Doru from trying, he is

Re: [Pharo-dev] playground vs workspace

Hi Doru, I do not understand exactly what the difference is or why you wouldn't call GTPlayground a Workspace. As I think you are using GTPlayground very extensively: Do YOU use the Workspace at all ? Do YOU miss something in GTPlayground, where you would say: Yes, only a workspace should do

Re: [Pharo-dev] playground vs workspace

Hi Kilon, Please, let's get positive :). I dont believe in being positive or negative can help. I think being open minded and seeing and exploring problems is far more reliable way to improve. I also believe that reporting a real problem is far more beneficial to a community than hiding it away.

Re: [Pharo-dev] playground vs workspace

Exactly! This is precisely the way we should look at tools: we should identify why we need that tool, but not necessarily stick with the tool. For example, people said a while ago that the Workspace is better than the Playground for searching for things like implementors. While that might have

Hi, Please look at the mail I sent to Torsten for a more thorough description of my reasoning. For example, I do not like that it implies that this is *the* place where work happens, and this is clearly not the case. Yes, I use the playground extensively for so many use cases. I do not miss the
