Hi Levente.
I have modified one of the PostgresV3 help pages on schema mirror and added your clarification:
Schema mirrors mirror the functions in your database and provide an interface to call them. There is a little tool to inspect the differences between the methods of the schema mirror and the functions in the database, which can be invoked by:
YourSchemaMirror browseChanges
You can up and download functions via this interface.
Download means to download the functions from the database server into your image. Upload means to upload from Sqeuak to the database.
Download = DB->Squeak Upload = Squeak->DB.
You can also do this method-by-method using the context menu of the listed functions. There''s also an option there to delete the function from the database.
In earlier times we would write the database functions in pgAdmin3 and download them into the image. Nowadays we use the smalltalk browser to write the plpgsql code and upload them to the DB.
Cheers.

Download means to download the functions from the database server into your image. Upload means the opposite direction.
You can also do this method-by-method using the context menu of the listed functions. There's also an option there to delete the function from the database.

So, you want to Download.
