On the second line before the | add t2.

Thanks....I think. Do I add that at the very start, or at the 2nd line of the little bit of code?

example:

Code:

blockspecs
| t1 t2 |
t1 _ #('control' ('block specs' #- #blockSpecs)).
t2 _ #('motion' ('block specs' #- #blockSpecs)).
^ t1 , t2

How does everyone know smalltalk/squeak (I forget which) Is it trial and error, or did someone teach you guys?

Trial and error, and observing the code, plus a great deal of interest. That's my story anyway.

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

Hi there, I just wanted to know if it's possible to become a block librarian, and how it works/what will be expected of me if I were to be one.

Thank you!  smile

I'm sorry, but I don't believe we're hiring any more librarians at the moment.

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

Would it be possible to do Import Panther Project From File block, or Import Panther Project From Web block?

I think that a block NXIII made does something similar to what you want.  It's somewhere on this thread...
EDIT: http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=1046802#p1046802
The update from version block, near the bottom.  It checks a text file to see if a new version is available, then downloads the new file (also specified in the text file, I think) from the web, and replaces the original file with the new one.

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

How do you guys learn sqeek/smalltalk (I forget which one it is). I mean does someone teach you, or do you just figure it out yourself? I really really wanna learn.

Well, like I said, a good way to learn any programming language is to observe the code and test making your own simple code. My mod Dream, which isn't released yet, is meant to make it easier for people to learn squeak and more advanced programming languages, you should try it when it comes out.

Sorry. I missed your post from above  tongue  Can't wait till Dream comes out! When are you expecting to release it?

If we do decide to hire a new librarian, it will most likely be someone who is very active in posting blocks and replies on this thread.

I visit it whenever I see a new reply.  The front page is seriously behind though.

Sparks was leading the development of the website, but he's very busy as a community moderator and there doesn't seem to be any recent development activity, as far as I can tell.

I have a BYOB block, but I can't upload pictures of it as my silly parents blocked most of the image sharing sites I could go on. : /

I'll post a project with the block in  smile

Here: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/DigiTechs/2833136


I'm back.
Maybe.

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

Any plans on 2.0 blocks? It would be great to have a gallery or something with blocks, but it depends on whatever happens with scratch resources. Any idea about what's happening with it from a 2.0 tester?
Also, I think it's time to choose a new Librarian; sparks is barely active, sci is a mod now and Greenatic is probably the only one that's still monitoring.

I'm not sure if there are any plans for 2.0 yet; I'm waiting until I actually see the code.
