[Newbies] how do I get Seaside up on my Squeak?

Hi Alistair,

the easiest thing is to copy the squeak.exe and the SqueakFFIPrims.dll
files in the same folder as Damien's image. Then drag and drop
the .image file over squeak.exe. This should be enough to run the image
(I'm on Linux, so I can't check).

Once the image is running, it will show you the Squeak desktop window.
There's also an option for running the image headless, so don't worry
about it if you're planning to run that image on a server.

Damien's image will show up with two Morphic windows already open: the
Script Manager and the Preferences Browser. Close them by left-clicking
on the 'X' button or minimize them by left-clicking on the 'O' button.

Once you've cleared the desktop, left-click anywhere on it to bring up
the main menu. From there, select Open...-Universe Browser. Once
the universe browser window is open, select Web Development and the
select the Seaside version you want to install (for example, Seaside
2.7.227). Click on the Select package button to select it for
installation, the click on the Install selections button at the bottom
of the window.

Once the system has finished loading, you will have a working Seaside
installation.

Ciao,

Giovanni

[Newbies] Delete translations

2007-10-11 Thread antonio
Hello,

I am learning the use of NaturalLanguageTranslator,
I'm testing with an etoys-dev-2.2 image (OLPC),

It is very easy to add languages, merge, etc, but I do not find how to
delete one of them.

Another question:
Which is Babel function?

Thanks in advance.

Actually, we do not use NLT anymore for OLPC. We exported all

https://translations.launchpad.net/etoys/first-deployment/+pots/etoys

This lets use use the gettext translation tools that are the

Thanks, Bert.

 translations to po files:

yes, I know, but I load:
desktop menu... / open / language editor
and now I can do both, isn't it?:
- I can load po files with gettext button (up on the right)
- I can load *.translation files with load and with merge buttons
Besides:
- I can add word/translated word pairs with add button and after this
I can do gettext export
(that's because sometimes I introduce  'tatatatatat' translated at any
method and the expression does not appear inside the right column, so I
put on the other side manually).

This mixed use can create problems to me?

translations will be OUT of the image file?
etoys-dev-2.2.image has translations inside or they are only at
squeak/po/subdirectories? 
I can load german language by menu but I have not any  *.de at my
squeak/po/subdirectories, so I'm confusing.

that's the question because I wanted to clean translations information
from NLT, it's easy to load after anyway.
 It is very easy to add languages, merge, etc, but I do not find
how  
to delete one of them.


About Babel (Preferences... menu),  which is the diference between
translationWithBabel activated or not?

Thanks again

Interesting --- I had tried that, but since I hadn't worked out the rest of
the instructions, I didn't notice anything different from starting ordinary
Squeak. 

The rest was all very explicit, thanks... here's the sort of thing I'm
running into (this is now-solved, but I imagine there are others following
me who will make similar mistakes. It took me 5 minutes to work out how to
do 


Giovanni Corriga wrote:

The difficulty was understanding how the selection business works in Squeak.
I kept clicking and double-clicking the text Web Development (the Windows
habit) and all that would happen is the text would highlight and
un-highlight. To my Windows-adapted eyes, the buttons don't look like
buttons, they look like they could be anything. I clicked around on
everything I could anyway. 

In the end, almost by accident, as I was giving up, I double-clicked on the
little solid triangle to the left of the phrase Web Development and there
was a flash of text on the screen as the list opened and closed, and
something happened in one of the button areas ... and from that I was able
to work out to go back and fiddle with the little triangle some more. 

After that, it all worked as described, including loading a bunch of stuff,
getting my name and password for config and I now have run config inside
Firefox locally, and have something that says Seaside showing on Firefox. 

The only reason I belabor this is to indicate the area of confusion a person
(I can't be that atypical) will have coming to Squeak. I used Digitalk
Smalltalk for 10 years (1987 - 1996), but that doesn't help me understand
all the little visual conventions that are known to practiced Squeak users,
let alone the Morphic interface (which I will have to face up to someday).

In all cases, many thanks for taking the time to be so explicit. It would of
course be much simpler to find someone to sit and do this with - I only wish
there were such a person here in Salt Lake City. (If any of you know such a
person, let me know!)

Re: [Newbies] how do I get Seaside up on my Squeak?

2007-10-11 Thread Prashanth Hebbar
Hi Alistair:

I tried Lukas' instructions and got the Seaside running ( on Windows XP). I
used the web version of the 3.10 beta image available here:
http://damien.cassou.free.fr/squeak-web/

Download this image into the same directory where you have Squeak 3.9.exe.
Either by double-clicking the web-image or dropping it on the exe, you will
get it running. The indication that you got the right version is that the
Squeak desktop will have a welcome window with documentation and a
Preference Browser opened. You can close these and pull out a workspace. Now
execute WAKom startOn: 8080 as per Lukas' instructions and proceed.

Hope this helps. By the way, this was my first posting on this mailing list.
Thank you.

Cheers,
Prashanth Hebbar

Re: [Newbies] Delete translations

2007-10-11 Thread Takashi Yamamiya

Hi Antonio,

It is very easy to add languages, merge, etc, but I do not find how to 
delete one of them.


If your question is about a word, there is a button named remove. If
the question is about a language, there is no UI but you can do it:

NaturalLanguageTranslator removeLocaleID: (LocaleID isoString: 'tlh')


This mixed use can create problems to me?

translations will be OUT of the image file?
etoys-dev-2.2.image has translations inside or they are only at 
squeak/po/subdirectories?
I can load german language by menu but I have not any  *.de at my 
squeak/po/subdirectories, so I'm confusing.


Now we use NaturalLanguageTranslator only for internal use. It will be
replaced more gettext compatible way. Meanwhile, you can use the
language editor, but I recommend to get used to gettext tools. Now
translation data is in the image as a cache. So you don't need external
po file. But this behavior might be changed.

About Babel (Preferences... menu),  which is the diference between 
/translationWithBabel/ activated or not?


Babel is old name of NaturalLanguageTranslator. This preference is no
more used. Thanks for informing about it.

Cheers,
- Takashi

[Newbies] Using Local Date Settings

2007-10-11 Thread Jack Williams
I am looking for information on how to get squeak to
use the locale settings for dates. I have found the
Locale classes, but I can't make sense of how to use
it to set squeak wide settings either based on the OS
or some parameter I can pass in. 

As an example, if I use '05/10/2007' asDate, I get a
Date object of '10 May 2007' rather than '5 October
2007'. I could code it myself, but surely someone has
done this already.

I appreciate any help or documentation.

Thanks,

Jack
