Edward Mokurai Cherlin commented on SQ-1170:
--------------------------------------------

According to the Squeak StackMorph tutorial at http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/2720.version?id=39 the symbols on the stack toolbar should be 

- Delete this card

« First card

< Previous card

• Stack command menu, described below

§ Show designations, explained in help text above

> Next card

» Final card

+ Insert new card after current card

◊ Display fewer controls (Previous, Menu, Next)
