It would be great to have an evaluator. A bit like a terminal or what they have with Wolfram or Aurora.
I guess Doru has been thinking about that already. Is there something cooking ? I plan to do one based on Roassal...

What do you mean by evaluator ? A kind of REPL with history management ?

Yes, as the one of scheme, drRacket...

There are several differences: - In an evaluator, you just need to press enter to evaluate an expression. In a workspace you need to press Cmd-p - In an evaluator, you have the nice highlighting for _each_ entry. In a workspace, everything is messed up after evaluating the first expression - In an evaluator, you have usually pseudo variables to access previous results. In a workspace you cannot do that, else by putting parenthesis everywhere - an evaluator is well suited for demonstration (e.g., the Wolfram language, Light table…) Alexandre > >> >> Alexandre >> >>> Le 16-04-2014 à 2:23, Serge Stinckwich <[hidden email]> a écrit : >>> >>> What do you mean by evaluator ?

Hi, I am thinking of an interface that goes in this direction for more than a year now, but I am not there yet. A classic REPL works fine for sequential programs, but the problem with this is that as soon as you do anything meaningful and want to iterate, you get a bit lost. For example, imagine you demo on a system complexity like visualization using a Mondrian builder:
You first do: view nodes: classes. view edgeFrom: #superclass. view treeLayout This can work just great. But, now you need to add at the beginning:
view shape rectangle height: #numberOfLinesOfCode You have to start again. The REPL interface was bound by the abilities of a terminal. But, we do not have those constraints anymore, and that interface has to be rethought.
One thing I am thinking of is having groups of text that get a preview. For example, imagine that you see a preview only after you say Cmd+Enter.
Now, about your points. You are right in that the implementation of Cmp+p was a nice solution 40 years ago, but now we can do better. There is no need for Cmd+p to affect the current text. This can be solved easily, and it is on the soon to show roadmap. This alone should alleviate the current playground usability.

You do not want a REPL this is far too limited.
May be people are messy with the workspace but a REPL is not good. and having a repl in Pharo should be around a couple of lines of code. I remember that olivier or camillo did one.

This is good because they build their demo for the repl. but Do they work with it this is another story.
