Hello Smalltalkers,
I'm currently working on new code editing tools, and I've implemented a new
subclass of PluggableTextMorph named PluggableTextMorphWithLimits , with a code
oriented feature:
You have a warningLimit ( 350 by default ) and an alertLimit ( 2* warningLimit
by default ), and the number of characters of the text displayed is counted (
without space, tabs, cr etc).
If you are below the warning limit, the background is white ( or the default
color ), if you are between warningLimit and alertLimit, the background turn
more and more yellow, and if you are above the alertLimit, the background turn
orange :)
After using it for ten minutes, you start shivering when the background turn
yellow ;)
Gofer new
squeaksource: 'Nautilus';
package: 'PluggableTextMorphWithLimits';
load.
You can test it by evaluating:
PluggableTextMorphWithLimits example.
I think it will be used by Nautilus, but maybe more code editing tools should
used it.
Thanks in advance for your feedback :)
Ben
