[Pharo-users] Grafoscopio ported to Pharo 8.x and Git

2020-08-04 Thread Offray Vladimir Luna Cárdenas
Hi, Grafoscopio [1] has been ported to Pharo8.x and Git. Source code[2] and documentation[3][3a] repositories reflect the change (at some point I hope both could be integrated in Fossil, but meanwhile community hosted Gitea and Fossil are working pretty fine). [1] https://mutabit.com/grafoscopio/
