Getting the refactoring menu

Smalltalk By Example says that I get a refactoring menu if I load the
AST and RefactoringBrowser packages. I can't work out how to do that,
though. I managed to find in the package universe browser, and have
installed it, but I can't find the RefactoringBrowser package there. I
can find it on SqueakSource, but I have no idea how to load it from
there.

Can anybody help?

TIA,

Tim,

1. Copy the text from the web page for Refactoring Browser from the Registration section.
2. In Squeak, open Monticello Browser (you find it under Tools on the menu bar).
3. Click the "+Repository" button.
4. Select the HTTP as type from the list of repository types.
5. Paste the text from your clipboard into the field below "Repository HTTP:".
6. Click Accept.
7. You should now see "http://squeaksource.com/rb" in the left pane of the Monticello Browser window. It should already be selected. Click Open (in the Monticello Browser menu).
8. The Repository window will open displaying a list of packages on the left and source code bundles for the selected package on the right. The bundles are sorted most recent first. So, select the first one (in this case "AST-core-lr.34.mcz and click Load.
9. Repeat step 8 for each package in the repository.

Hope that helps.

Thanks,
Patrick

Hi Tim,

TR> can find it on SqueakSource, but I have no idea how to load it from
TR> there.

one has to enter a new (HTTP) repository into the Monticello Browser
(that should be covered by SBE). Then open the new repository, select
the package and select "load" or "merge".

Personally I just download the mcz from the web interface of
SqueakSource and drop it on my image which then gives the options to
load or merge.

If MC isn't covered clear enough in SBE I think they are open to
suggestions.

Cheers,

Herbert

I don't think that it's not covered clearly enough, it's the fact that
not everything goes into my head when I read it just once. That's why
I'd never be able to learn Squeak just from a book, I also need "A
friendly place to get answers to even the most basic questions about
Squeak."!

It certainly should -- I'll try it. Thanks.
