Hoi all--
I'll be doing the Annual Squeak Shoutout again at FOSDEM in Bruxelles this weekend. Please let me know of any Squeak-related accomplishments you'd like me to mention! So far I'll be showing off Squeak 4.5 rc 1, shouting out mad props to Chris.
thanks again,
-C

Quite right too.
Load up the latest production Scratch-Pi too. Runs perfectly well on a plain interp VM, or of course, scrounge a Pi from somewhere.
And maybe, load up an image with MathMorphs & the plotters. I think that would make a pretty neat demo and really ought to be made more of, even though it is such old code. Who needs Mathematica?
And Plumbin’ ! Classic!

Cool, I'll have a Pi with me. My other talk is "A Spoonful of Pi".
Thanks for the suggestions, Tim!

How about your latest Spoon work?
Oh, be careful with RC1, it has some issues hopefully fixed in RC2.
Showing anything not still being actively developed such as MathMorphs seems like a bad idea from a marketing perspective.

Well there’s a relatively easy solution to that… but nonetheless Edgar pointed out that it works in the 4.5 image as of the end of last year. Given how cool it is, I’d be happy to demo it.

Here http://squeakros.org/MathMorph.zip you could download a complete small old image (4.3Mb) with sources and Mac old VM running MathMorhs. Runs in any Mac new and old G4, so should run in Pi with proper VM.
I working in having it on Cuis reduced based image.
And challenge Craig for having a Spoon gizmo !!

Thank you! (A note - it wouldn’t unzip with the default unzipper on my iMac but was fine with the UnArchiver) It’s very, very, cool. I think for a quick demo I’d be inclined to build a clutch of action buttocks that would fire off each demo plot and just show one case of the air-typing, simply to save time.
I can’t tell from my very quick look so far - did anyone ever make dynamic plots? I’m thinking having sliders or other inputs immediately affecting the plot. There are a few people I’ve come across online that are interested is trying to use Scratch to teach about algorithms and functions and other mathy stuff, and I have been encouraging them to look at mathmorphs for inspiration. Mixing Scratch tile building with mathmorph function handling and plotting might make a really neat tuition tool, one worthy of ‘selling’ as a classroom app on Pi’s for example.

I have that in muO. Download the muO image at http://www.zogotounga.net/comp/squeak/muo/muO290.zip then in the image do a right-click on the world, from the menu that appears select "live documentation -> examples -> basic -> Function editor example 2" and see what happens.

The "Make it yourself" part is outdated BTW, it will not work exactly as explained...

Edgar, Tim
I remember that, within the air typing, you could drop one or more objets into other objet and use the formers as arguments of a message sent to the dropee. Meanwhile you choose one of the possible selectors, the droped objects orbited the would be receiver as small satellites. Is that feature still working for Tim's demo? Best

PS: Richie, one of the developer of that feature is now working with satellites orbitig earth :)
