Mathsmorphs help

Dear all apologies if this is not the perfect list for the query:

the majordomo for the mailing list at dm.uba.ar

bounces my request to subscribe.

I was hoping to extend/revive work on Mathmorphs.

I now have an image that includes

WrapperWorldMorph class and a number of categories

relatedto MathsMorphs incl MorphicWrappers-Support

However I'm unclear if I have everything I need or if

there is anything specific that I need to do to enable use

of mathsmorphs:typing 'onair' inside the Squeakwindow

has no effect. Do I need to launch a WrapperWorldMorph?

Thanks for any pointers

regards

David.

Hi David,

I'm not in a position to answer your specific question, but I hope someone will!

It's a great to have!!!

Note that a modernized version is developed in Cuis nowadays.

https://github.com/len/Domains

Serge Stinckwich announced his will to port to Pharo.

It would be super cool to also port to Squeak!

Re: Mathsmorphs help

Hi David,

I loaded the MathMorphsRevival project into Squeak 5.2. It loaded cleanly, but I had to tweak a method to enable type-on-air. Rather than burden this email with those details, I went ahead and made a new SqueakMap entry for 5.2 that simply loads cleanly with type-on-air working.

Don't forget, the desktop must have focus (so click on it, then click again to dismiss the World menu), and THEN press the [TAB] key. Voila! Typing on air!

Invoking the menus did signal a warning about a deprecated method -- turning off Deprecation Warnings can let you ignore those for now -- but everything else seemed fine in the < 5 minutes I played around with it.

MathMorphs was my first introduction to naked objects that inspired me to develop Maui. Good luck!

Best,

Chris
