More configurations

Hi -

Just as an update, I've added more Metacello configs to the
Configurations package and will continue to do so. If you have any,
please add them as well.

At this point adding configs does *not* necessarily imply we consider
all of them 'supported' packages. What I'm rather looking for is a body
of functioning configurations in Squeak that I can start applying some
integration tests to.

So if you have Metacello configurations or want to learn how to add one,
go ahead and knock yourself out. There are some nice simple ones for the
games now that you can start with.

Cheers,
- Andreas

Thanks for mentioning that! I was holding back a few that probably wouldn't be supported, but work just fine.

Added MathMorphs (revival) - includes MorphicWrappers. In inbox Configurations-spd.5.

Class comment of ConfigurationOfMathMorphs...

Original MathMorphs:
MathMorphs and related projects are beautiful pieces of Mathematics and Physics run in Squeak. They have been created at the University of Buenos Aires, and the original web site is at UBA . The projects basis is MorphicWrappers, other projects are FunctionPlotters, LinearAlgebra, MetricSpaces, PhysicsMorphs, Fibonacci and others.

This project (the revival):
In May, 2006 Lic. Edgar J. De Cleene suggested on squeak-dev to collect necessary changesets, make them run in latest Squeak, and save them for future in a community effort. Edgar also collected most of the changesets needed and put together functional 3.9 changesets, I started converting them to Monticello. Please see details of each MCZ file for history of it's creation. There are 2 Monticello Projects so far, more will be converted in the future.

A good starting point:
1. Load the MorphicWrappers & Functions packages with:
ConfigurationOfMathMorphs project latestVersion load: #('MorphicWrappers' 'Functions')
2. Doit:
XYPlotter example1 plot asMorph openInWorld

Re: More configurations

Oh, this is *wonderful*! Thanks so much.

One little MC nitpick though: It appears you've been saving multiple
versions of the MC package with the name "Configurations-spd.5" (you can
see this when you click on the "history" button in MC for the package).
That's usually not a good idea since it confuses some tools. Unless you
have very good reason to, I would recommend to leave that version number
alone - there is absolutely no need to have consecutive numbers.

Cheers,
- Andreas

Ha ha, you caught me! No good reason, I will stop doing that.
