In the Self window, in the editor bar near the top, type an expression\n2. Accept with either Cmd+s or [Enter]\nAn object, very much like an Outliner in the Self Language, will appear in your hand. Place it in the world wherever you want\n\n#### Scrolling in the World\nJust use the mouse wheel, or click and drag anywhere on the World's background\n\n#### Navigating a Complex World\nSince grokking a complex world can be difficult, there is a RadarMorph, inspired by Self's RadarView.\nTry the following:\n\n1. Accept in the window's evaluating editor: ``RadarMorph new extent: (300.0@200.0); openInHand``\n2. Place the RadarMorph in one of the corners of the world\n3. You now have a warp speed option for scrolling - click and drag in the RadarMorph. Compare the regular scrolling described above and you'll see that it is at a much finer level\n\nFeature Map\n------------------\n\n#### Creating new types\nIn self, the equivalent of creating a new instance is to copy a prototype e.g. \"morph copy\" ~ \"Morph new\". One key difference is that in most of the examples, you continue to customize the behavior, which is not a built-in way to deal with Smalltalk instances. So, we start with an equivalent of \"Morph subclass: #MyMorphSubclass\". In the future, we may make a real prototyping facility, but this will get the ball rolling.\n\n#### Classifying globals\nIn self, one would add a slot to globals under an appropriate category and then connect the slot to the new prototype. As a Smalltalk equivalent, we include a \"package\" slot in all outliners. So one can drag and drop the package slot handle onto an RPackage.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fseandenigris%2Fliving-code","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fseandenigris%2Fliving-code","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fseandenigris%2Fliving-code/lists"}
