First of all you need PackageInfo-Exporters from SqueakMap. Then you
need the package "Magritte-VisualWorks" from
<http://mc.lukas-renggli.ch/magritte>. Evaluating "MADistribution
fileOutForVisualWorks" should produce you a couple of files that can
be loaded into VisualWorks, however I never actually tried to do it
;-)
Cheers,
Lukas

just load the Pier package from SqueakMap into a fresh 3.8 image. It
will automatically load all required prerequisites such as Kom,
Seaside, Magritte, etc.

"pretty" urls for links to internal pages?
by Brian Chapados
Hi,
I'm new to smalltalk, seaside and pier. I want to use pier to host a small
site, and if possible, I'd like to change the way internal links to other
pages are rendered, so that the wiki text:
*Introduction>introduction*
produces the link:
http://localhost:9090/seaside/pier/information/introduction
instead of:
http://localhost:9090/seaside/pier/information/introduction?view=PRDefaul...
Both links return the same URL when typed into the browser, so clearly
view is the default command. I've tried searching around for information
about this but I couldn't find anything obvious to me. While browsing the
source code, I came across WAUrl adaptToContext: and WAAnchorTag goto:,
which look potentially relevant, but I'm honestly not sure if I'm on the
right track. I'd appreciate it if someone could point me in the right
direction. Also, if this is a really bad idea for some reason, that would
also be good to know.
I'm using Sqeak-3.8, Seaside 2.63a3-lr.51 and Pier-all-lr.81
Thanks,
Brian

About magritte for XML serialization
by Stéphane Ducasse
Hi lukas
I wanted to know this was possible to specify how an field should be
saved and reloaded.
For example I wanted to save a date and reload it.
I added
MADateDescription>>parseString: aString
^ self parseString: aString protected: [ aString asDate ].
to MADateDescription :)
but I have the impression that been able to specify at the
description level
the way the values are saved and filed in would make sense.
I checked on my old version of MA, but I could not find how the
MADescription
itself was describing the condition because it would be the same process
may be been able to specify a block or a selector for each of the
action would be cool.

Moving the contents of Pier from one image to another
by btaylor＠healthauditors.com
Hi all,
I have an instance of pier running in an image which seems to be hosed. The problem is that while Pier will still display pages, it will not allow them to be edited. This started sometime after I put in a back ground process to periodically save the image.
So, I need to know how to migrate the contents of this wiki to another image. Any tips on this? BTW, I can still edit methods in the System browser, and execute workspace code.
Thanks,
Brett Taylor

Changing admin password?
by Duncan Entwisle
Please could someone tell me the proper way to change the
administrator's password in Pier?
Last week, I could do it by using the Pier Browser, exploring the root,
and sending a password: message to the adminUser instance.
I've now created a new image, with the latest Pier packages from Squeak
Map. Even though the password appears to change in the instance, the
old passwords (user=admin, password=pier) remain in use.
I realise I'm probably doing something stupid :-)
Thanks for any help,
Duncan.
P.S. With the latest Squeak Map Pier package the Pier Browser doesn't
appear to be added to the Tools flap like last time.

I would hope that 3.8 remains the primary target at the very least until
after 3.9 is actually released.
