[squeak-dev] [ANN] Algernon: Your Personal Assistant for Squeak

Hello everyone!

We just wanted to announce our new software release, Algernon.
Algernon is a keyboard-based launcher that provides lightning quick
access to categories, classes, morphs, and global variables in your
image. It's inspired by similar tools like Quicksilver and LaunchBar
for Mac OS X. Give it a try and let us know what you think. We hope
you love using it as much as we do!

Thanks,
Erik Hinterbichler and Joey Hagedorn

http://map.squeak.org/account/package/b263b71c-9359-424c-bcc8-1269ccd4ccf8

P.S.
None of this would have been possible without the work of Hernán Tylim
on KeyBinder, our CS598 classmates, or our professor Ralph Johnson.

Hi!

Thaks by the work!

Hi.

This looks great. One thing I note though: ctrl-space is going to clash with eCompletion (another very useful tool, already present in the dev images), had anybody thought of that?

Cheers,
Simon

This is great! many thanks...
it is possible to have this as an universe package? It would be easier
for newbies...

Esteban,
Thanks you! If you choose "update package list from the net" it
should be in there. The link was just a pointer to some more info.

Simon,
Good point. We ran in to this too, but found other modifiers we had
been using, such as option-space, didn't work on all host operating
systems. There is a method, "activationString", which you can easily
customize, but we're open to a better default if anyone can suggest one.

Extremely useful utility! Thank you. One suggestion, an option to
cache state between invocations to save re-drilling down into
categories?

Hi again
I added some extensions to Algernon, in order to make it work with
OmniBrowser... I created a monticello package named OB-Algernon, can I
send it to you for upload it into the repository?

Maybe is present in 3.9 universe and not in 3.10? I can't see it there.

Sure, go ahead.

The official OmniBrowser is not on SqueakSource though and to me it looks open.

Stephane,
Yes. The URL is:
http://www.squeaksource.com/Algernon.html

I've gone ahead and made it global read/write for anyone that would
like to make any changes.

eCompletion can be triggered by TAB too.
