Perfect!

Thank you.

Copy-n-paste to a Workspace and the Link functionality still works.

I will investigate and incorporate.

Fun fact, Alt-6 in X-Windows WindoMaker switches to Virtual Desktop 6 (so fast, I thought Squeak exploded with the keybinding! (: ), so I cannot use those bindings for the attribute menu.

Actually, that would be a fun keybinding #explode

cheers and thanks again.

select text in any text pane and press ALT/CMD-6 to open attribute menu.
You can see such hotlinks in action if you look at Help->Core Packages.
Class names are linked to their definitions.

See TextAction class. Its subclasses are used for hotlinking. See

text editor.
