> System menu for Squeak, where do I get an explanation of these ?
* 'Use 3 button mouse mapping'
If on, maps the yellow button to the middle and the blue button to
the right button (otherwise the right button is yellow and the middle button
-if any- is blue).
* 'Buffer mouse input'
If on, the VM buffers mouse input by itself, so that these events
don't get lost. Sometimes good but sometimes dubious.
* 'Defer display updates'
If on, the VM tries to merge multiple small screen updates into a
larger update. Has no effect in Morphic (which does it's own deferrals) but
speeds up MVC heavily.
* 'Reduce CPU usage'
If on, the VM will go to sleep under certain circumstances to keep
the CPU usage low during idle times.
* 'Show output console'
If on, a little Window pops up at the bottom of the screen showing
messages from the VM (if any).
* 'Show console on errors'
If on, makes the console window pop up as soon as something is
written into it (which usually only happens when the VM prints error
messages).
* 'Printer configuration...'
Starts up a printer configuration dialog. The settings are used for
the print primitive.
* 'Display version information'
Displays version information of the VM (what did you expect?!)
