[Pharo-users] TLS/SSL and SocketStreams

Hello, In the process of maintaining a small IRC client I have written, I'm trying to add the option to connect over SSL. Of course ensuring valid certificates and the handshake et al is quite complicated. Instead I'm attempting to rely on Zodiac's `ZdcSecureSocketStream` instead of a regular `Soc

[Pharo-users] Morphic, Canvas, and Drawing Polygon Borders

I am having some trouble accurately drawing polygons using Morphic and the various Canvas types. My task is to recreate the Mac OS Platinum style buttons, and do be as pixel-accurate as I can. For the basic button, this involves creating a rectangle whose corners are always fattened by 2px on each

[Pharo-users] GIFReadWriter and Animated GIFs

Hello all, Please excuse the length of this email. A week or two ago I discovered that the GIF implementation in Pharo (and possibly Squeak?) is incomplete. This has two side effects: 1) Not all GIF data will load correctly; 2) There is for now no way to display animated GIFs. It looks like the

[Pharo-users] Pharo 7alpha and XMLParser Inspector Error

[Pharo-users] NeoJSON Custom Mapping Question

Hey guys, I'm toying with the idea of a Pharo implementation of ActivityStreams ( https://www.w3.org/TR/activitystreams-core/#introduction) which is based on a subset of JSON called JSON-LD (for "linked data"). While I do not believe this would entail creating a whole JSON-LD implementation, I do

Re: [Pharo-users] [VIDEO TUTORIAL] How to use external code editors to code in Pharo

Sven asks an important question: why would anyone want to use an external text editor given the power already present in the system? For most of us on the list this question is rhetorical. But let's take a stab at addressing it with the seriousness that, I think, it actually deserves — particularly

Stef, Exciting news all around. Is this s good opportunity to revisit theming? I made a good attempt to wrap my head around themes about a year ago or so, but it's quite complex. If now's not (understandably) the time, how will themes work with this new multiple-backend approach? On Thu, May 2, 2

[Pharo-users] Best Practices for Adapting JSON based APIs

[Pharo-users] Status of Encryption / Keys / Etc

Hi all, I'm try to get an idea of the status of keys and key signing (cross platform if possible) in Pharo. Do we have general mechanisms for signing pieces of data, and for encrypting/decrypting based on public/private key pairs, including those set as the default for a given user on a given syste

Re: [Pharo-users] Do we have a simple markdown parser?

Hi Ramón, I have a couple of questions. If you are using OSProcess in Pharo 8, how are you installing it and from what repository? If I add the Squeaksource version, I do not have the method that you are referencing. Additionally, it would be good to see an example of this in OSSubprocess. Using
