Hello I have played with this on Moose 5.0 (Pharo 3.0 update: #30854) on Windows 7 Pro. For me, it is necessary to include color:Color red after openInWindow to get the red background, as Thierry said. There is another puzzle, which is that the code does not respond in any linear way to chan

Hi Peter, As far as I can understand, this is because TextStyle is brain dead code when it comes to font selection (and fontName:size: is a useless API). (and now I can't write code in my Workspace in 4.0 because I get a DNU from the styler for every key I type :( :( :( ) This code correctly sel

Thanks for the welcome note. :) I am quite certain that I want to head in a direction away from Web application development using Pharo. I see in Pharo the promise that was left unhonoured by Squeak, one of having an elegant system instead of a quilt. The Pharo UI looks better than any of t

[Pharo-users] not a smalltalk!

hey, i've just been reading up the pharo forums, and one of the posts/entries mentions something about pharo not being a smalltalk, but instead a dialect! is it true? that would mean, all or any code i write for pharo would not be portable to other smalltalk-80 systems! hmnn... ~mayuresh

Re: [Pharo-users] not a smalltalk!

There is a long story about all that. But to be short: - if you call it Smalltalk then you have to make it compatible with other Smalltalks. And they are a lot in the 80s… - we want to make something new and cool what may be not always compatible. So yeah On 05 Sep 2014, at 20:25, Mayuresh Kath

AFAIK Pharo technically is not even compatible with Squeak which is where it forks form. You assume the code you write will automatically be incompatible to smalltalk-80 but since pretty much a huge percentage of the functionality of Pharo and Smalltalk is in libraries since the language itself is
