Folks -
I have just put out five new updates...
064ServerSortBy-di.cs (1998.05.27 08:36:54 5,516) Supports sorting by date, name or size in remote directories.
065serversInRoot-di.cs (1998.05.27 08:36:21 8,183) Automatically includes all known servers in the root list (what you see when you choose [ ] ). Also fixes 'add server' and adds 'remove server'. Also fixes a bug that prevented one from seeing file names with spaces. Also fixes a bug that prevented looking at directories other than the leaf directory. Lets you freely go back and forth from Net to Disk.
066DebuggerFixes-wod.cs (1998.05.27 09:17:51 3,799) Bill Dargel's debugger fixes from a previous message - many thanks!
067tk-chooseServer-DG.cs (1998.05.27 08:58:34 3,148) Lets you to abort by choosing no server group when you start to load updates.
068tk-saveMorph-BG.cs (1998.05.27 08:58:45 16,079) Allows saving morphs with scripts. The unit of saving is the PasteUpMorph (i.e. Playfield). In the halo of a PasteUpMorph, in its menu, choose "playfield options...", then "save morph in file". It is OK if viewers and scripts are open at the time of saving. But, any script that is not *named* will be inaccessable later. So name you scripts before saving. I (TK) will issue a later update that explicitly asks you to name the scripts.
To bring a playfield back, in the World menu, under "file...", choose "read morph(s) from file". It will come in and stick to the cursor. (We need to get a file picker in here, because we all know it is bad interface to ask the user to type an existing name.)
Enjoy

Dear Squeakers :
I'm a beginner in Squeak ( in Smalltalk too ) . The point is, when I attempted to create a new class with the name #Link, the system crashed. I have found later that this name is used for a class of Collections-Support, but the system doesn't warn me. Is this correct ?
Thanks in advance.
Francisco.

Obviously not.
It IS the intention in Squeak to make it easy to make fundamental changes (and therefore to get in trouble), but it would be easy in your case to have warned you if your definition came from a browser in which the pre-existing definition was not visible.
(Someone else out there in Squeak-Land might supply just such a cautionary check if we close our eyes and wish real hard ;-)
