[Pharo-users] Nice Pharo teaser in English?

I remember there used to be a nice Pharo teaser video at the top of pharo.org which had some catchy images for data visualization etc. Now all I can see is this link https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3qedvo and it's in French. Could someone point me to the old teaser I am referring to? Thanks!

Re: [Pharo-users] How to fix the Pharo launcher Windows installation! (WAS: Windows installation broken?)

Vincent Many thanks - at last a clear explanation of how to get it going. I tried this with the Launcher I downloaded yesterday, and was able to launch the template versions of Pharo 6.1 and Pharo 7. The only problem was that I am not familiar with the Launcher interface, and I had to search

Hi all, Indeed, the Windows environment is not the one where Pharo is working the best. Last week, I tried to install it on one of my coworker desktop and there was some issues that was solvable with some workarounds, it is temporary and the windows support will be improved soon: I'm

yes, we have bad support for windows. Period. we try to improve in that, but is hard and takes time… there are lots of small details that needs to be taken care in all fronts (from VM to UI, traversing all layers)… but we will get there, one step at a time. And with the help of those in the

Nothing, that's precisely my point! So we don't need to talk about balls size, with the implicit gender assumptions about courage and the "Macho Programmer" way of argumentation, that is toxic in *other* communities for minorities (non white, non cisgender, non male) which usually repeals them for

Great - thank you! Might be a small patch release - but nonetheless important. BTW: the links in your mail are pointing to PR's of Pharo and not Iceberg. If you used          a template you might want to consider changing it.     Gesendet: Montag, 18. Juni 2018 um 17:47 Uhr Von: "Guillermo

Developers are users, and many users are developers. What kind of developers are you counting? Microsoft/Windows/.NET developers represent a huge number, especially in the enterprise market. If these developers are going to explore alternative tools like Java, Ruby, Pharo, Common Lisp, etc.,

Re: [Pharo-users] Windows installation broken?

> Do you have enough balls to call out Steph for his obviously wrong decision That’s a bit provocative - I think the launcher is pretty good, and helps ensure people get correct versions of things as well as feel more comfortable checking out newer Pharo’s (like 7) or other projects. I’ll admit

[Pharo-users] [Ann] Iceberg v1.1.1

Hi everybody, This week we have a small patch release of Iceberg, version v1.1.1. This version will be available in the next Pharo build. In summary, this release fixes two issues with the new credentials manager, and introduces a couple of other enhancements/bugfixes. Below you will find the

Re: [Pharo-users] [Ann] Iceberg v1.1.1

Thanks again for the new things. Just a little maneuver critique. The amount of changes you did should be iceberg 1.2.0 and 1.1.1. Versions are cheap ;) and everything which is not really a hot-fix should be a new minor version. Norbert > Am 18.06.2018 um 17:47 schrieb Guillermo Polito : > >

They still use (binary) StandardFileStreams on Pharo and Squeak. But since it's done through dynamically chosen file stream factory classes (XMLFileReadStreamFactory and XMLFileWriteStreamFactory), it's easy add support for other stream classes. (The GemStone compat .mcz adds factories for

I appreciate what you're saying, and certainly the things you want to see funded are worthwhile. However, the goals for my programming competition are quite different, for example: #1 – raise the public profile of Smalltalk across a broad swath of the population in Canada and other countries.
