Hi Nicolai,
About the rebuilding of the subwidgets, I really don't know. Maybe if I
can force the highlighting I can't ignore the rebuilding issue in some
way, so that's what I'm trying now and seems I'm closer. Do you know how
to make a TreeNodeModel to show itself expanded? I tried with
'#i
An area that generally interests me is making languages cooperate.
When I started with the idea of Pharo using Python libraries, I thought it
would take me months to have something usable. Instead it took me weeks
mainly because I found that a very simple solution could provide me with a
working p
Pharo has the easiest deployment in any language I have used. It's just a
single folder. It does not get any simpler way than that. You can also
customize the name of the executable, the icon, the folder and the image
itself. There is no need to install Pharo or your Pharo application.
So what you
The problem is not so much that Pharo has not shortcuts for everything, or
that shortcuts are tricky to make or modify. The problem is that Pharo is a
very complex environment, more complex than emacs and vim. It's very easy
to create messy shortcut setups like emacs and vim.
Saying that yes sure
I don't want to present a whole application environment to the user, I want
to disable everything not having to do with the task at hand.
Also, it gives people with more limited bandwidth connections the options
of downloading the entire thing, or a highly stripped version that is much
smaller. It
Agreed, a mouse is simpler. But a keyboard is faster and (more importantly)
ergonomic. I am a bit surprised that you say probably most Pharo devs
prefer using the mouse, Dimitris. Being new to Smalltalk, my impression was
that the openness of the environment lends itself very well to
customization

Pharo is absolutely the worst language for deployment in the world. This is

That's the spirit indeed , as a Pharo dev you basically design or improve
your development tools. I did not imply that we prefer using only the
mouse, obviously if that was true we would not have shortcuts. If memory
serves correctly Pharo already offers 217 shortcuts which is a good start

Including the Pharo enviroment is a great idea because it makes remote
debugging a possibility. Pharo has tools to connect to another running
image and control its exe
Correction: Actually I was wrong, you dont even need to delete shortcuts to
make the IDE completely inaccessible to user. The moment you create the
morph that covers the Pharo window, that morph can also receive all events
which means no Pharo shortcuts will be able to trigger unless of course you

Kilon:
Thanks for your input. That is indeed brainstorming. I know the importance
of doing too. But the value of brainstorming is big. A farmer does a lot of
work but is not valued much. Watson and Crick brainstormed a lot and
discovered the double helix. I don't want Smalltalk to miss that power.
