(download panther 1.0)

Is that what you wanted?

no wrong link dont worry

Okay never mind then

Hi Panther team, love your version 1. I know i am posting in the wrong area but i can't seem to get help. I opened a scratch project i was working on in Panther, but now it doesn't work anymore and lags too much. It doesn't work right in Panther or Scratch 1.4. Some scripts seem to be executing faster and before others that weren't like that before. Any suggestions for help?

I had that problem too, I think it might be because Panther saves in a different file type: .pt, instead of .sb, but I'm probably wrong.

if it is that, do you know how to change it back?

The original .sb file should still exist, I think.

It shouldn't make any difference, we just changed the file extension to make it more personalised. Still coded the same way.

Hey!

Probably the problem.

Any new emails? If so could you forward them to me please? So I can alert the team?

hey sperry, yes, I think I will forward them to you, I can't handle the registrations from here due to lack or dropbox. I'll send them on now. You should see a folder in the dropbox that contains a list of registered emails. I know you don't have my lovely project that loads it automatically into the file, but the layout id pretty simple. Sending them now 

Ok, but I havent got anything yet.

oh bum. Sperry I don't have your email saved anywhere! you need to get it to me!

(the old fashioned way  )

I sent you an email saying Hi.

I think my one is a bit faster... Panther 1.0 Install.zip

Does speed matter?

P.S.  You should read .ypr files and compile the custom blocks into Smalltalk!

But, the point is, Panther shouldn't be writing .sb files ever, even if the project was read in from one.  You  might want to put up little warning windows on the way in and out: "you are reading a Scratch project into Panther.  If you make changes and save the project, it will be saved as a Panther project, which Scratch won't read.  (Your original Scratch project will be unchanged.) [ ] Do not show me these warnings again."
and "Your project was read in from baz.sb but Panther is saving it as baz.pj which will not be readable by Scratch.  The file baz.sb remains unchanged. [ ] Do not..."

.pt, not .pj (Sorry, just had to say this)

That would be awesome!
