Tweak only setup problem

[Ross Boylan]

I followed the instructions at
http://tweakproject.org/TECHNOLOGY/Download/ to try to set up a Tweak
only image.  However, after I opened a Tweak project window and tried to
update
1) I got an error message it couldn't find the server.  However, it then
said it was searching, and apparently found something.
2) Updating Tweak halted with a window displaying a syntax error.  The
top pane shows
ChangeList class   *monticello  recentLogOn:startingFrom:
The bottom pane shows the method:
recentLogOn: origChangesFile startingFrom: initialPos
        "Prompt with a menu of how far back to go when browsing a changes
file."

        | end banners positions pos chunk i changesFile |
        changesFile Illegal character ->_ origChangesFile readOnlyCopy.
        banners _ OrderedCollection new.
        positions _ OrderedCollection new.
        end _ changesFile size.
        pos _ initialPos.
        [pos = 0
                or: [banners size > 20]]
                whileFalse: [changesFile position: pos.
                        chunk _ changesFile nextChunk.
                        i _ chunk indexOfSubCollection: 'priorSource: ' startingAt: 1.
                        i > 0
                                ifTrue: [positions addLast: pos.
                                        banners
                                                addLast: (chunk copyFrom: 5 to: i - 2).
                                        pos _ Number
                                                                readFrom: (chunk copyFrom: i + 13 to: chunk size)]
                                ifFalse: [pos _ 0]].
        changesFile close.
        banners size == 0 ifTrue: [^self recent: end on: origChangesFile].

        pos _ (SelectionMenu labelList: banners selections: positions)
                                startUpWithCaption: 'Browse as far back as...'.
        pos == nil
                ifTrue: [^ self].
        ^self recent: end - pos on: origChangesFile


Though nothing seems to be highlighted in it.

I'm using a squeak 3.9 VM.

I guess it doesn't like _ for assignment; I saw an update flash by that
had a comment about changing to :=.

Any suggestions?

P.S. The process of loading install.mcm took a long time.

[David Faught]

These instructions say to start with the homebase.image that comes
with Croquet.  Assuming that you did that, the only other step there
is runs the install.mcm script.  And that's it.  There is no update
stream for this, so trying to update could only cause problems.

I'm not sure that the 3.9 VM would work with this or not, but there
are definitely some differences with the Croquet VM.

So the instructions that say to check for updates apply only if you got
one of the "previous versions"?

I believe that is correct, yes.
