[ALERT] Pharo by Example version 5 is about to be released
 
|
In case someone missed it I will be doing a release for version 5 (pharo version = pbe version) this weekend , since we had Pharo 7 initiated few days ago. Essentially that means that the repo will be tagged for version 5, which means a git commit is associated as a last commit for that version and there will be a frozen release - download for Pharo by Example version 5. After that we move to Pharo By Example version 6 or PBE6 for shorthttps://github.com/SquareBracketAssociates/UpdatedPharoByExample/issues |

when you are done I will add an entry in the http://books.pharo.org I did one for the spec tutorial so we will be able to announce both.

Thank you for pushing this new version of Pharo by Example !
Would be nice to put Pharo 5.0 edition in the cover maybe ?

my pleasure Newcomers 99% of the time they only notice PBE1 and that for me is unacceptable, Pharo is not as it is when I started using it 5 years ago with almost zero documentation , we have come a long way and those books need to be front page to make sure people are aware that we have good documentation. The only thing remaining till the release is for me to update the Reflection chapter , the rest of the book looks ok and the issues reported are not show stoppers for the release most of them are new content request that can wait for next version.

Actually, the reflection chapter needs some more rewrites (not only updated screenshots). Some examples just aren't applicable anymore because we don't have refactoring browser preinstalled and although Nautilus can do alot, its missing the full set of menus for creating scoped environments. I'll try to rewrite those parts.

yeah as I said the chapter needs a complete rewrite. I am not even it is necessary to exist separately. On Sun, Nov 6, 2016 at 9:27 PM Nicolai Hess <[hidden email]> wrote:

Duh, please don't advertise your own theme and tools and not in this place. In the chapter about the key tools, there is an introducion, listing all tools (browser/finder/...) following by a description of this tools, AND in between(!) a paragraph about themes and loading Nireas and silly tool for editing this theme. This is totally unrelated to the other content. And if at all, I would only mention the dark theme ( as it is somhow popular to have a dark theme), but not at this place, maybe at the introduction where we show a first screenshot of the enviroment. (But I don't use the dark theme, so I don't know if the Pharo 5 version is "production ready". |

*simple* tool (BTW it does not work)

I did not advertise Nireas because I wanted free advertisement , if that was the case I would be advertising Ephestos which has been a far more important project for me and a project I invested far more effort. The idea with Nireas is a theme that allows easy customisation to any kind of theme the user wants. I completely disagree that themes are not one of the most basic tools of an IDE. How my environment looks like is extremely important to me and how easy it is to read code. Dark theme has been probably the biggest enhancement Pharo had since day one for me and has helped boost my productivity a lot more than any other tool. I also remember how happy the community has been to accept the dark theme in its arms. So obviously themes matter a ton to the average Pharo user. I can imagine myself living without the blue theme, but I cannot imagine myself coding in Pharo without the blue theme and the dark theme. Hmm thanks for mentioning not working, this is weird, it works fine in Pharo 6 , it has a MNU in Pharo 5. I will fix it today. In any case I have no issue removing the mentioning of Nireas , go ahead and do it. I never had a problem with people changing my content in PBE5. But simply I cannot agree with your opinion .

I will remove it. My opinion is not that themes are not important, but that it looks out of context in this chapter. This chapter has an overview stating what we will describe in this chapter, then having this intermediate step about changing the theme, open CatalogBrowser, loading Nireas and talking about that it has a theme editor ..., which looks totally unrelated to the other content that is about the core tools (browser, debugger, finder ...)

no problemo , I prefer people changing my content than not contributing at all the to the documentation. So your interest makes me more than happy ;) On Mon, Nov 7, 2016 at 11:23 AM Nicolai Hess <[hidden email]> wrote:
