Hi Folks.
Here's the preamble from my changeset:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "OK. You could say that this is a silly crusade, but I like my Squeak messages to be in proper English (at least when the language you're using is English).
I was messing around with the HangMan file-in and I got a walkback that had the following title: 'Error: HangManPhrases classs are not indexable'. I just couldn't stand the extra 's' on 'class', so I created a nifty new String method called asPlural and I modified the sender of the odd string to use the new String modifier. Take it or leave it, but I think this makes auto-generated text just a little easier to read." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I hope you find this new String modifier useful too.
Cheers!

Thank you! It just happens that I have a need for this and was planning to write something this weekend. You've saved me some work - much appreciated.

This is a nice little enhancement by Chris Norton that helps Squeak to speak gooder English. It was timed out on the BFAV list.

Hmmm, that did not seem to work; the posting is still in the "closed" tab in BFAV. What is the correct way to un-close something? Should I send a copy of the original posting under a different subject line?

Re-post a copy with a different subject - once a BFAV thread's been [closed] you can't re-open it.
