Hi Ted,

I'm thinking in something like this. I will keep you posted.

Cheers,

Hi there

Well, perhaps you like this idea
(ideas are easier that programming, are they? :o)

what about a workspace with
on the left a tree pane
with in the tree: saved workspaces
grouped under workspace "categories"

e.g.

aWorkspaceTree
   +-aWorkspaceCategory
    - aSavedWorkspace
    - anotherSavedworkspace
  +-yetAnotherWorkSpaceCategory
     -yetAnotherSavedWorkspace
     ..
+

Greetings
Ted

Hi all,


I'm reading with great joy, various pharo/smalltalk related books to get a

glimpse of what is available. I started with PBE and almost finished, then

the Seaside Tutorial by HPI and the Moose. I'm just browsing them and make

some things here and there using the Pharo image and workspaces to create

documentation. Now I'm reading the Master Thesis "Scripting Browsers with

Glamour" by Phillip Bunge and as I read about MVC this part:

Reenskaug, however, never intended for the breaking of encapsulation that

the pattern promotes. He wrote later that the “top level goal was to support

the user’s mental model of the relevant information space and to enable the

user to inspect and edit this information.”

I think that I want the same: support my own mental model when I'm exploring

Pharo/Smalltalk. I have been a long user of Leo[1] mostly for documentation

related matters and I would like to have this kind of tree-like WorkSpace in

Pharo, instead of the plain one provided by default. So I will continue the

reading of the thesis, but I would like to know if there is any package that

can provide this support for my "leo alike mental of documentation" inside

Pharo. If this is not the case, I think that trying to create this

"TreeSpace" in replace of the usual WorkSpace will be my first projects.

Please let me know any thoughts or advices about this idea.


I think you should take a look on Nautilus project (Ben, can you
provide link/instructions?).

:)
The tree-based browser is Nautilus (Nautilus2 is more basic)
If someone has some questions, I will be glad to answer :)

Ben

It using trees instead of lists to display contents in browser.

But i puzzled, what are use of trees in workspace? Maybe you meant browser?
Because by looking at screenshots [1], it is closely similar to browser.
Workspace in smalltalk is just a text editing area where you can type
small snippets of code and then evaluate them.
I see no way where trees could be of any use in workspace.
