Hi.

I am writing some simple morphic scripts. It would be convenient to use smalltalk directly, so I toggle the script to directly enter the code. But I am having problems, as it is not working. If I uses tiles to create a script and then toggle over to text mode, the script looks like this for script "showa":

showa
        self setX: PolyZb getX.
        self setY: PolyZb getY.
        self setHeading: PolyZb getHeading.
        PolyZb hide.
        self show

I think when I type the script in directly it doesn't know how to reference PolyZb (a polygon object I created). Any help? How does this translation between morph object's name and the internal SmallTalk name happen?

Hello again Antero :-).

What is your native language? Finnish?

There's a lot of documentation on http://www.squeak.org/ Documentation. Many of the books there are still valid.

When you start up Squeak, normally you get a few windows on your screen with information about the "image" you're using. All of Squeak can be accessed from that - including the IDE. Is this what you're seeing? Try clicking on the background.

thanks.
Any examples from databases. Where to dig. ?


I would use Google; use "site:wiki.squeak.org" or "site:lists.squeakfoundation.org" in your queries and look for the keywords: "Magma", "GOODS", "MySQL", "PostgreSQL", "ODBC", "SQL" etc.

However, I'd learn to walk before you start running! Spend some time learning how to program in Squeak before trying to do complicated things like accessing databases.

Michael.
