[Newbies] Font encoding
Hello, How would I set the proper encoding for fonts under Squeak? My keyboard layout under Windows is set to 'PL', and pressing LeftAlt-a should yield the letter 'ą'. Instead, I am getting some garbage. Thanks, jps ___ Beginners mailing list Beginners@lists.squeakfoundation.org http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/beginners

Re: [Newbies] The Weekly Squeak is back!
Hi, For the moment I'm trying to spread the word about Squeak using a local community Wiki for documentation: www.el-directorio.org/CategorySqueak I see that most of the spanish wikis about squeak are not updated frequently (I use this MoinMoin python powered wiki instead of the previous Smalltalk ones because I know better the syntax of the former). There is some kind of squeak ring with sites of news, wikis, and so on to join it?

While at the moment I'm the only one posting, the blog will be the collective effort of the Squeak News team ( http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/news ). Joining the News team is also a good way for getting deep into the Squeak community. So if any of you would be interested in working on the Weekly Squeak (with articles, newsbits, interviews, reports), we'll be happy to have you on board.

[Newbies] getters, setters, attr?
Howdy, I'm coming to Smalltalk from Ruby (from Java.) Ruby has a nice construct: attr :attribute_name[,true] The construct generates a getter (and an optional setter if the true flag is included) for the named attribute (instance variable.) Is there a similar shortcut to generating getters and setters in Smalltalk/Squeak? I'm not interested in turning on #autoAccessors as I want control over the getters and setters. Thanks in advance.

Hi David You can download the RefactoryBrowser from squeakmap or you can download and install the refactoryengine from http://squeaksource.com/ @ehoWsqHVuXjcUYEx/wpgyyYAP. If you look at the menu from the second top pane ( the class pane ) in the browser the submenu under instance variables will create accessors for you.

Re: [Newbies] getters, setters, attr?
One important difference: in Ruby you are using a mini-DSL. Remove or rename the attr... and the getters and setters follow. In Squeak once you generate the accessors you deal with them individually. So if you remove the instance variable, you have to manually remove the accessors. Since you are in an image-based world with Squeak, a solution closer to Ruby would be to extend Class with methods like add_attribute: name :rw aBoolean remove_attribute :name and invoke these directly on the appropriate classes. I suppose you can also extend the environment to put these onto menus. You could step these up to Active-Record like DSLs (Magritte does equivalent things) add_attribute: name :rw aBoolean multiple: aBoolean inverse: aName My (naive) understanding is that somehow this DSL-like style does not appear to have become popular in the Smalltalk world. Is that true? - Original Message - From: Bert Freudenberg [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: A friendly place to get answers to even the most basic questions aboutSqueak. beginners@lists.squeakfoundation.org Sent: Thursday, September 07, 2006 2:14 PM Subject: Re: [Newbies] getters, setters, attr?
