Question

The Pharo dev image ships, by default, with a browser that doesn’t seem to have any refactoring abilities. What’s the most convenient way to transform a fresh Pharo image into something more useful?

Answer 1

You either download the Pharo Developer Image from the download section on the Pharo Website (it contains a selection of developer tools including the refactoring engine) or you use the following script in a Pharo Core Image:

"Refactoring"
Gofer new
    squeaksource: 'rb';
    package: 'AST-Core';
    package: 'Refactoring-Core';
    package: 'Refactoring-Spelling';
    load.

"OmniBrowser"
Gofer new
    renggli: 'omnibrowser';
    package: 'OmniBrowser';
    package: 'OB-Standard';
    package: 'OB-Morphic';
    package: 'OB-Shout';
    package: 'OB-Refactory';
    package: 'OB-Regex';
    package: 'OB-SUnitIntegration';
    load.

"Tools"
Gofer new
    renggli: 'unsorted';
    package: 'Shout';
    package: 'RoelTyper';
    package: 'ECompletion';
    package: 'ECompletionOmniBrowser';
    load.
