Hi, Scott.
What's wrong with just making the directory Scratch.activity/Projects
writable by the world? Seems to me that it could not hurt other
applications. Scratch does not run any binary files from that folder,
so it should be pretty safe. At worse, some malicious software could
write

Hi, Erik.
Apologies for the delay in responding. I was on vacation, then
finishing the Scratch 1.3 release.
Scratch remembers the last language set by the user in the Scratch.ini
file. If that file is read-only, it fails gracefully.
In older versions of Scratch (such as the current XO versio

Claudia Urrea would like to get the Scratch Sensor Board working on

which I've now fixed. The fix will be in the next Scratch activity

Hi, Scott.
I wonder if you could give me a bit of guidance. The Scratch file
dialogs have shortcuts for common folders on Windows and Mac, such as
the desktop and the user's documents folder. Most of these shortcuts
make no sense on the XO, but I thought that perhaps the documents

Hi, Phillipp.
Thanks for reporting this problem. I believe there is a way to tell
the XO to associate the .sb file extension with Scratch. I will look
into that and let you know if I figure it out.

Hi, Phillip.
Re: Do you plan a journal integration for scratch?
Probably not in the near future. There has been talk about making an
API for the Journal that looks more like a file system to application
programs. That might be the easiest way to integrate the Journal into

Hi, Eben.
Yes, using the Journal would be optimal for XO users, and perhaps we
will make Scratch do that in the long run.

Hi, Phillip.
Thanks for all your hard work in tracking this down. I had looked at
several other packages, including EToys, and couldn't figure out from
them how to do this.
I will make these changes to the next XO Scratch bundle.
Is that all I need to do? What about the mime types XML file s

Ahh, that would explain it!
Maybe we need a couple of lines of shell script to check for the link
and create it if it isn't there.

Hi, Steven.
The USB-serial cable that comes with the Scratch Sensor board needs a
driver from Prolifix. That driver used to be included in the builds,
but perhaps it was accidentally dropped?
If you use a supported USB-serial adaptor cable, then I think the
ScratchBoard will work.

Greetings, all.
I am porting Scratch to the XO. (Scratch is an easy-to-learn
programming environment designed to help young people create
interactive multimedia. See scratch.mit.edu.)
Scratch includes commands to play notes and trigger drum sounds. On
Windows and Mac OS, these commands use
