ey! I am still alive! And I have been going on onto some adventures
n smalltalk land. First of all, I have published an updated version
f squeaky[0] that includes some bug fixes like unbreaking displaying
mages again. But also one navigation UX issue.
his needs some small explanations though. I am misusing a Morph
or Widget in other UI kits) called BookMorph which can be composed
f arbitrary other graphical objects on a page. On the top there
re navigation buttons that allow you to move between pages, even
aving the contents on some web DAV server.
queaky uses one page per gopher request. Previously new pages would
ave been inserted in the back which made navigating weird when
ou'd expect the forward and back buttons to behave like in a web
rowser.
nstead of just moving back the BookMorph would show you previous
ages which means that you keep scrolling over pages you have visited
efore to get back to that one gopher menu.
ell you used to, no more of this idle clicking! With this release
he pages following the current one will get deleted and the newly
licked page is inserted.
uture work will include reload support and maybe a 'open in new
age' feature.
hanks for reading and stay tuned for more gopher love!
