Writing a GUI in squeak


How can I write a GIU in Squeak? I'm a Smalltalk newbie and I'm using Cincom's VisualWorks at the moment but I'd like to give Squeak a try. I see that Squeak has Morphic for graphics but for the life of me I can't seem to find a package to write an MVC based GUI.


Solution

  • Squeak includes all the classic MVC classes, but you can also create GUIs using Morphic, indeed much more interesting ones than you can (easily) with MVC - that is after all why Squeak was created!

    Note that you may get a better response posting somewhere more specific - there don't seem to be many Smalltalk people on SO. Try http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.smalltalk.squeak.beginners to start with.
