[Oberon] I have been defeated.

[Andreas Pirklbauer]

An alternative approach to the "too many copies of the same viewer" problem has been experimented with in Experimental Oberon ( https://github.com/andreaspirklbauer/Oberon-experimental ). There, each menu viewer has a "System.Clone" command in its title bar, which opens a clone (=deep copy) of the viewer in a new virtual display area, which is created on the fly. No overlaying tracks and no "hidden viewers". It's an experiment, so it would be interesting to hear what people think and how it could potentially be improved.

No ! ETHO's ViewerFrameTree need not lead to unintended unsyncronizedmultiple copies of the same Viewer.The solution is to KEEP to my established method: a ProjectFile has multiple indexed] sections.Since they are all on ONE file/Viewer all sections are automaticallysyncronised,although viewable/editable separately, and viewable together.So eg. when you start a new project, it gets it's own 'book'.Here's the start of by book to <install LinuxAos>:-----------==CONTENTS==search?q=LinuxAos...www.informatik.uni-bremen.de/~fld/UnixAos/www.informatik.uni-bremen.de/~fld/UnixAos/Changelog.txtwww.informatik.uni-bremen.de/~fld/UnixAos/Readme.txtwww.informatik.uni-bremen.de/~fld/UnixAos/rev.6661/www.informatik.uni-bremen.de/~fld/UnixAos/rev.6661/Readme.Debian.txt<><><>search?q=LinuxAos Web About 1,790 results (0.48 seconds) Did you mean: [15]Linux os [16]File systems in LinuxAos - Oberon Community Platform Hi, This screen is LinuxAos on Debian Squeeze. http://members.shaw.ca/ peasthope/LinuxAos.jpg.
