Hi Ted,
Don't worry and take your time. I tend to write looong (this list should
be thankful of English not being my first language and I mostly self
learned after crappy courses, if not, you will have me writing even
longer ;-P).

I'm working on following-up to them.
But first I wanted to look at all your links and make as thoughtful a reply
as you have, and that takes a while...
I think what you've been working on could be a good entry

Hi again :-),
I forgot to mention about the Spec2 migration plans, so a (hopefully)
short comment on that.
Last ESUG I talked with Guille and Esteban about combining Spec(1) and
Spec2 in a single interface. The idea is to be able to embed Spec old
widgets into Spec2, as they are progressively mig

Hi Offray,
I think you're addressing many of the same concerns as I am, with more of a
web/browser orientation perhaps...
Which is good. Pharo can make nice, interactive web sites as well as nice,
interactive documents, can it not?

Hi,
Is nice to see this thread.
Our approach to building documentation is a problem/local first one. So
we go from particular problems/projects as need of the community
dictate them. We do workshops and create the documentation while the
workshop is happening and then we compile such documentati
Okay, I'll do that. But this brings up a more general question...
If I wanted to add a diagram, or maybe a document with equations (rendered
in LaTex), then a class comment wouldn't work.

We are about to release a nicer rendering of comments.

I wrote a "theory of operation" document for my app,
https://github.com/tbrunz/logic-puzzle
But then I realized, "Where do I put it??"
I thought of a few possibilities:
* Commit it to the git repo, but then it wouldn't be easy to access from
Pharo,
* Add it to a top-level Pharo class comment,
Hi
Thanks I was planning to implement it.
I asked Esteban to take the time to integrate my PR.
Now can you send some PRs to the version of esteban like that we will get a
better version.
And you can open issues on his repo
We will fix them.

EXACTLY!, Stéphane, thank you! I will go through this tutorial today.
Has anyone written any documentation or maybe a tool that would help
understand what each ‘widget’ is capable of? I review all example code,
read all class comments and peruse the class hierarchy, but when a widget

Hi Russ,
I added an "Examples" package tag, with several methods that lead through
the Zebra Puzzle solution, step by step.
It still doesn't do the entire solution by itself, but each example method
displays the solution state up to that point, allowing you to examine the
results and infer addi
I also would love to see intermediate tutorials on Spec2 and Seaside. (And
Zinc and Teapot, too, for that matter.)
And the example/tutorial I'm working on really *should* have a Spec2 _and_ a
Seaside/Teapot interface. But that's a bit over my head... Which is
frustrating; I want to know how to
Back on the 'Intermediate Tutorials' question...
I would love to see intermediate tutorials on Spec2 and Seaside and
perhaps how to best adapt an (Sp)Application to serve both 'presenters'
with guidelines on what responsibility goes where on the
presenter/component, application, and model(s).
So I decided to write an application to solve the Zebra Puzzle, by solving
this type of problem in general. In Pharo, of course.
I worked out a few basic algorithms for making deductions and inferences,
and coded them, along with tests, in Pharo 8. Now I've reached the point of
having a workin
Having solved a number of these problems in my youth, I tried to solve this
one "by hand". But with 6 attributes of 5 properties each, the
"bookkeeping" task was too difficult to deal with while trying to find a
consistent solution.
It turns out that it's very easy to make an inconsistent conclus
Recently, I came up with one such project that might work here, and I spent
some time prototyping it. The project is to create an application in Pharo
that can solve the "Zebra Puzzle".
What's the Zebra Puzzle? It's an example of a "constraint satisfaction
problem", which are also known as "logi
