Does anybody know where to get a list of the (most common) smalltalk-commands and a short description of them?
Hi,
The "Terse Guide to Squeak" provides a handy reference: http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/5699
UIManager was missing. I added it now.
I would vote for this to go into the image (help->terse guide) or as an external file along with the distro.
I reformatted the Terse Guide so that it can be loaded into the Squeak help browser, and gave it a few updates and corrections. The result is in the Squeak developers' inbox.
Dave, thank you!!
Well, hopefully it will be useful for us recovering Fortran and C programmers ;-)
Let me issue two follow up challenges, since I could not figure these out on my own:
1) It would be good to add a terse one-line expression that would show the use of block closures. What is the shortest meaningful expression that illustrates this?
2) It would be nice if the pages in the help book could be set to behave like workspaces, with syntax formatting and workspace variables. Can anyone think of a way to do it?
