I'll change Meta and stuff to match Ctrl, Cmd and Alt tonight.

In the current bleeding edge i've splitted shortcut declaration from settings declaration, so we can put shortcuts without putting them in settings.  And it avoids the error you had yesterday when resetting the keymaps ;).

Cool ! Don't forget to sleep :)

The problem with CTRL has to do with:

http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3748&q=events&colspec=ID%20Type%20Status%20Summary%20Milestone%20Difficulty

That I think is a VM bug :(
Maybe it has to be one of the first things to have a look at 1.4

Thanks Guillermo.

KeyMapping is really really really important !!!

Actually shortcuts using CTRL don't work and I would like CTRL + xxx rather META + xxx  for TWM

I've freezed the version of keymapping you use in TilingWindowManager with number 1.7:

Gofer it
  squeaksource: 'ShortWays';
  package: 'ConfigurationOfKeymapping';
  load.

(Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfKeymapping project version: '1.7') load.


Because I'm doing some changes

First thanks to all people that send patches (and tests !!). Still not haven't merged all of them - don't hesitate to post in repository so code is not lost. Yes I will merge layout policies. 

Gofer it
  squeaksource: 'TilingWindowManager';
  package: 'TWM';
  load.
(Smalltalk at: #StandardUITheme) beCurrent.
(Smalltalk at: #TWMBar) showTWMBar:true.

Tested on PharoCore 1.2 and Pharo 1.3.

Now this has support for world snapshot, that means you can arrange the windows and take a snapshot of the layout. Then you can restore these layouts later. (icons camera, <, > and trash). I'm not entirely satisfied with this, thanks for feedback.


In Pharo 1.3 there's initial integration with KeyMapping. To load:


Gofer it
  squeaksource: 'ShortWays';
  package: 'ConfigurationOfKeymapping';
  load.

(Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfKeymapping project version: #bleedingEdge) load.


Then in settings browser > Keymappings > Tiling Window Managers you have all actions of the dock mapped.

Not all shortcuts are working, don't know why, if people can test and find good shortcuts thank you.

Creating a nice Metacello Configuration for TWM will be appreciated :)
