EncryptedMultiDisplayScanner and users
http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=6808An EncryptedMultiDisplayScanner is a MultiDisplayScanner displaying
stars instead of characters (for password by example)
Wow... this is soooo overkill!
Look at the amount of extra code we have just to simply displaying
stupid stars ... ************
See the:
EncryptedTextMorphForFieldView>>drawOn:
...
aCanvas encryptedParagraph: self paragraph bounds: fauxBounds color: color.
ehh?.. Since when canvas (a tool for drawing graphic primitives and
text) needs to know anything like that?
I'm not sure if there could be better/simpler solution (considering
that we don't have a simple line editor and need to go over
overcomplicated text->composer->scanner->displayscanner chain to be
able to edit even single string..
but that's really, really stupid to penetrate multiple layers of
responsibility just to display stars instead of characters...
What if i would like to display '%' instead of chars, should i also go
and repeat same way??
We should get rid of this thing..
