BashTalk 0.1 The revenge of the scripting
by Giovanni Giorgi 01 Sep '06

01 Sep '06

Hi ;) It is Friday and I'd like to do a small joke. Do you like scripting in smalltalk right? But the "Revenge of the Bash" has came finally! BashTalk is a Self-like-prototyping system written in... bourne again shell. So the scripting shells are trying to obscure Smalltalk! It is so small I have attached to this mail... May the Script be with you. Your dear Scripting Sith :-) -- Software Architect http://www.objectsroot.com/ Software is nothing

I suppose I'm happy that everyone's doing the second rather >than the third, but I'd rather we were doing the first. ><snip> Here's an attempt at addressing it: *********************************** Tests, literate programming, other documentation,... have been suggested. I have realized that my own coding style doesn't scale to substantial programs. I use extreme distribution; object structure and object interaction are implicit in the classes. I have (almost) never been able to keep code and documentation in sync. Adele Goldberg once said: "everything happens somewhere else". Which means that it may be hard to find what I look for in my code. I am now searching for a high level coding discipline where important, high-level stuff is explicit, visible and readable rather than hidden in the details. In short: A new programming language/discipline/... where readability comes first, reuse second, efficiency last (for 95% of the program). And less code doing more. I believe Smalltalk and Squeak are the way to the future. But we still have a long way to go.

[ANN] MorphicWrappers and related
by Lic. Edgar J. De Cleene 01 Sep '06

01 Sep '06

Here you have MorpicWrappers working in Squeak3.9g-7054.image, and also Funcions and Plotters http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/5855 You should load first MorphicWrappers.4.cs.gz And then FunctionsAndPlotters3.9Ready.1.cs In a World , you press TAB key for entering "aerial typing" and then type XYPLotter example1. Check the other examples When I have time put more converted MathMorphs in that page. As was some Indiana Jones quest of mixing things from several sources from Squeak 2.1, 2.3, 2.7, 3.6 , sure is still buggy. But loads, works, plot. Enjoy, Rich

[Help] On Mantis how do you manage filtering for each view name?
by Peace Jerome 01 Sep '06

01 Sep '06

When I am signed in to mantis anonymously. If I press "my view" I get a summary of several different views. Unassigned Resolved Recently Modified If I am logged in as a reporter add to those also Reported by me Monitored by me. There are several different things acting as filters. The outermost is the project which can be all projects or exactly one of (currently): squeak smallwiki2 croquet tweak squeak packages squeak website squeakland squeak 3.8 ========== If I press view issues I get a list of all issues (in my selected catagory and a list of filter settings Reporter: Monitored By: Assigned To: Category: Severity: Resolution: Profile: [Myself] any any any any any any Status: Hide Status: Product Build: Product Version: Fixed in Version: Priority: any none any any any any Show: View Status: Show Sticky Issues: Changed(hrs): Use Date Filters: Relationships: 150 any No 6 No any Sort by: Last Update Descending (above is a slightly edited paste of filters that come up when Reported by me is pressed.) Pressing any of the fields will allow me to edit all fields and pressing a button (Use Filter) on the following line will regenerate the view with the filters applied. The following line has [-] -- a hyperlink to the view all bugs page Search: -- this is just a text discription. input box -- allows a search target string to be input. Apply Filter -- this is a confusingly named button that does the search and returns only the list of bugs that have the target [ Advanced Filters ] -- hyperlink or button that brings up the same page except this hyperlink will now read [ simple Filters ] [Reset Filters] -- a pop up menu that gives me choices between reset filters, a blank line, nofiltering, and fixes. Use Filter -- button that applies the filters above this line. Manage Filters -- button that brings up a page that give me the option of selecting between the options that appeared in [Reset Filters] i.e. nofiltering and fixes both of which bring up the all bugs page with a different set of filters set. nofiltering gives me a list of all bugs fixes give me an empty set of bugs ( status is set to resolved and hide status is set to (Resolved and above) so I assume this is attached to the resolved view.) ============== So Help. How do I control what is set for the filters in the five views available to me. When I do set filter setting what are they attached to? And where are they stored ( on impara or in the cookies on my machine or ...) I've got more questions but I don't want to unfocus this post any further than I already have.
