Re: [Pharo-project] Who are you?

2009-07-21 Thread Stuart Herring
I'm using Pharo with Seaside for a small commercial website for a friend's business (http://test.creativecorsetry.com.au) - not live yet, but only a month or so away. I originally started on Squeak 3.10, but Pharo looked like being the better choice for the future. Regards, Stuart On Tue, Jul 21,

2010-12-16 Thread Stuart Herring
Yes, it is just a way to format test results. It's something from the Perl world, and so most of the tools to do anything useful with it are therefore Perl oriented. It's fairly limited in the amount of information it can convey - just a test number, a status, and an optional description. Not eve

It seems to be related to the VM. To reproduce, just open a browser and save and quit. Then opening the image with Cog r2344 or r2345 will result in this error - it seems to be happening in the startup process. If you debug it, the code that apparently causes the problem actually works fine when ma

Hi all, I recently ran into the problem with a server returning text/plain instead of application/octet stream again (see http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/pipermail/pharo-project/2012-April/062388.html), but the resulting error (a MNU for Character>>bitOr:) failed to job my memory as to the actual cau
