Pharo / Squeak environment with dual screens

Question

I was just wondering if there is a way to work with multiple screens in Pharo or Squeak. I am just switching from VisualWorks to Pharo and am really missing this feature. I am used to having my workspace / transcript on one and my browsers on the other.

Thanks, Henrik

Answer 1

Ok, so for now the answer is:

To use Pharo/Squeak on multiple screens either:

• span the main window over both of them;
• or launch multiple images.

Right now no option of having morph as a separate window is available.

Answer 2

The basics of support for multiple windows has been in Squeak since 2005 or so. It just needs one of the people that spent years requesting this capability and assuring us that it was utterly crucial to make/find the time and oomph to do the higher level work.
