squeak 'wysiwyg' application?

by David Goldstrom :: Rate this Message:

Reply to Author | View Threaded | Show Only this Message

Hi,
   I'm working through a beginner tutorial, and like what I see so far,
but I have a side question...

   Is there a wysiwyg editor for squeak? I guess I can live without
(and use LaTEX outside of Squeak) but it would be nice to have. I don't
need "Word" or "OpenOffice" but I'd like something more like "Wordpad."

  Is SqueakMap the place to look for something like that, or is there
someplace else?

  Are there enough tools to really 'live' in a squeak environment? One
example would be a web-browser inside Squeak so that I could access
google apps?

Thanks in advance,
David G.

Have you looked at Sophie? I don't think it is something that you
typically run in your dev image. Otherwise, I'm not aware of anything.

There's a video about Sophie in action, a Squeak wysiwyg application,

- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ag59IDi3dgQ

and Sophie's home page is here,

- http://sophieproject.org/

Look for Scamper, I think it's on SqueakMap (it may depend on your Squeak  
version).

Enjoy Squeak :)

Klaus,
  Thanks for the suggestion.  I found Scamper and installed it, but how
do you start it? I tried "Scamper open", start, etc... and "Do It" but
no luck :-). I'm sure it's obvious, but I haven't quite got it yet.

Thanks for pointing me to Sophie. I can navigate to the developers site
and the latest sources for sophie, but then I find myself wondering
which .mcz files to download and install?

Any suggestions are much appreciated :-). Thanks again,
David

It should register itself in the World menu (open->) and also in the tools  
flap (drag it out).

I think that Sophie brings a lot of stuff in its dedicated .image, just  
download it (linked from the homepage) for your platform. They have also  
docs for the developer,

Sorry, another beginner here. :)

 
I've installed Scamper(12) several times (I'm on the 3.9.1-final-7075 image for Mac) but when I try to run it I get and UndefinedObject parse: error. I'm guessing that's the equivalent of my beloved NilObject thing in Ruby (message passed to a null reference).

 
Any ideas?

 
Also, I find that many of the libraries aren't updated for 3.9 yet (3.10 has been released so it don't inspire confidence). Is this just a hiccup or are many of the libraries not updated. Also, is stuff broken so quickly between releases?

Scamper depends on Network-HTML. You need to load that.

You can use a Workspace. It has the nice side effect that all text is
executable, so code is just a DoIt away from testing. A downside is that
it has no support for multiple fonts and there are issues with aligning
embedded pictures to the text.

Sure ;) In SqueakMap the packages usually list their dependencies, have  
you checked that required packages are already loaded. If so then I'd  
suggest you contact the package's maintainer, Scamper(12) says that it  
runs in the 3.9 .images and I'm sure they can help you.

There is a concerted initiative, Squeak-dev and Squeak-web .images  
containing Universe, in which authors provide a one-click-load experience  
for things to run out-of-the-box. You might want to check the most recent  
releases,

-  
http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/squeak-dev/2008-April/127393.html

If you want to have another package added to that list I'd suggest you  
consider contacting the package's maintainer.

You need load in order
http://www.squeaksource.com/Ladrillos/Network-HTML-md.4.mcz (I put for
convenience here)
http://www.squeaksource.com/Scamper/Scamper-kfr.12.mcz

And then in Workspace Scamper open.

Was not registered into open menu or in Flaps, but works...

Another old friend for FunSqueak ?

Thank you. I went back and loaded Network-HTML through SqueakMap and
then Scamper, and that resolved the problem, and put the webbrowser
option in the menu. I was assuming that the dependencies were loaded.
Based on the package description for 3.6 & above. Thanks again!

In 3.9 ?
The recipe is for 3.10, so if loading from SqueakMap works, someone should
mark as working in 3.9 and 3.10, or made a appropriate dependencies load and
register in Universes.

Thanks Karl. I loaded Network-HTML and it worked without a problem. 

 
Quick question: would it be difficult to get the package loader to auto-install dependancies?
