MathMorphs still alive?

For assorted reasons of no interest here I was looking at a copy of the nuBlueBook and actually got around to reading the chapters on MathMorphs & the plotter extensions. Fabulous stuff and potentially a useful app of their own for the Raspberry Pi as an educational tool. Does it still work in the current image? Anybody still caring for the code?

Re: MathMorphs still alive?

There was a Morphic revival project, but I don't know the status (check on SqueakMap or google it).

I also imported some code in Squeak a few years ago.
The main problem I had for a start was that MathMorph was polymorphic (several concurrent definitions for polynomials, etc...)

Edgar J. De Cleene back in 2010 has it running in his FunSqueak 3.11 version, and has a 4.3 FunSqueak that also has MathMorphs (named MathMorphsRevival) running in it.

Edgar has been doing a great job of reviving some of our favorite Squeak
classics. We do not give him nearly enough help or thanks for this, but I
think it is important work.

Bravo Edgar!

Here

you can see MahtMorphs working in the last version of 4.5 in the server

Recipe is simple.
In Monticello MCHttpRepository
location: 'http://www.squeaksource.com/MathMorphsRevival'
user: 'squeak'
password: 'squeak'

Then load in order
MorphicWrappers-edc.3.mcz
Functions-zz.4.mcz

Aerial typing works

hit TAB in world, and in the Ballon popup type : ThetaRhoPlotter example1
plo

I wish tanks to Caniglia team in UBA for create this , to Milan who help in
the Monticello version creation and former co workers Emilio Oca and German
Boccoleri for the help with the search and collect of disperse code at the
time.

Could be nice if any with math skills add more examples as the Cardiod made
for Milan.

Happy new year to Squeakers !!!
