To learn Squeak (or anything) try to work with it a little each day. Try to write a simple program each day.

You can make a shared flap and move the scripted object into it,
switch projects, drag it out.

Each Project has an associated PasteUpMorph that is globally accessible via
the World object when the project is active but can also be accessed by
sending the world message to a Project. So to moving a morph to another
project means changing it's parent to the "world" morph for that project:
(Project named: 'New Destination') world addMorph: (World submorphNamed: 'My
E-Toy')

In the World\'s viewer you can find the \"last keystroke\" tile.

thanks bert, karl
but still can\'t get the functionality I want with only a global
lastKeyStroke

eg. to make a simple shooter
I have one script to move the shooter right and left - using right and left
keys
Another script to prime the bullet, so it starts in the same position as the
shooter - I have arbitarily used the z key for this
Another script to shoot the bullet - I have used space bar for this

But if I shoot the bullet and then move the shooter then the bullet suddenly
stops
And I want to make a sound once only when the bullet fires, can\'t see how to
do that because the script to fire the bullet has to tick continually

Converting my visual scripts to text:

move
World1 getLastKeystroke =3D \'\' ~~ false

Set the \"batch pen trails\" option to false to get the behavior you\'re expecting. This option can be found in the \"pen trails\" menu of any playfield, and also in the \"world\'s\" pen-trails menu.

Note that batch-pen-trails is turned off by default starting with
etoys2.2 update level 1695.

Cheers, -- Scott

Out of the box we\'ve disabled halos and the world menu, but you can enable them by hitting Alt-k for a Workspace and then evaluating [OLE authorMode].

It takes about two hours to teach a (non-Smalltalk) programmer to design and script Squeak/Etoys activities like the ones we\'ve built. The skills are passed on very easily by way of face-to-face demonstration but they\'re difficult to pick up all by yourself. We must discover or produce more effective materials for people to teach themselves Etoys - please point us to anything that you have found especially helpful!

Make some videos on Etoy scripting

For now we\'re programmers borrowing all icons from Gcompris or images.google.com
