ok i guess i miss understood what *Make your own Etoy meant.* i am still not able to see any tutorial in http://www.squeakland.org/whatis/tutorials.html *Make your own Etoy. i guess now this is just an empty work-space. to practice but no tutorial. *i am looking on a tutorial on how to use a morph i built into something like an Etoys. particularly i would like to know how to make my own bricks so it shows in the miscellaneous category. how to make a flap where i could put all my morphs for later use an instantiation a little like the suply flap but with my own stuff. to be more clear i want to draw a car "suv". teach it to "roll over" show the "roll over" method as a tile for the "suv" toys. create a flaps with all my "rebuilt cars". i feel quite lost with my current understanding of squeak . is my design even feasible. thanks for any help. so far i have tried to track down how the rectangle Morph was build but i haven't yet grasp the concepts from the code .

Unix VM path encodings
by Andreas Raab 01 Jan '08

01 Jan '08

Hi - Due to a bug reported against Qwaq Forums I needed to look into how the Unix VM encodes file and path names and got terribly confused. My test case was to create a file with an Umlaut("Jürgen") and to see what both Squeak and the Unix shell reports with varying settings of -pathenc and -textenc. I started with the assumption that since the file system I was running this on is UTF-8 the default settings (-textenc MacRoman and -pathenc UTF-8) ought to be correct. However, the result was very surprising. The file name was reported incorrectly both in the file list as well as by the OS - the file list reported "J?" (truncated after the question mark) and the Unix shell reported "J?rgen" but with a "funky ?" (the glyph is hard to describe without a screenshot; it was neither an umlaut nor a regular question mark). Playing with the settings I could not find any combination that resulted in a consistent representation for all the different views - either the Unix shell was off or Squeak's view was off no matter how I set those encodings. Can someone explain to me how I need to set these values to get a consistent view on file names both from Squeak and Unix? Cheers, - Andreas
