Folks -

I've just issued to the servers a couple of SqC updates, along with HMM's debugger restart preference.  As follows...

	- Dan
------------------------
4326UniTile7-tk -- Ted Kaehler -- 6 September 2001
UniTile menu item to add a new temporary variable, or get a tile for an instance variable.
Converted the 'center dot' in compound names to replace character ascii 0 instead of space.  This allows the mixing in of spaces (args in menus, etc).  Adjusted spacing.
Converted many 'column' SyntaxMorphs to 'row' so that the popUp will appear beside it.  (A layout bug fix caused these to be displayed as a true column).
Selector menu now tells what class it is trying to show."

4327RememberColor-ar -- Andreas Raab -- 5 September 2001
Make the paint box remember colors from prior paints."

4328LocalEtoyUserLists-ar -- Andreas Raab -- 5 September 2001
Fix up access to eToy user list for local project directories. Also provide a mechanism for giving a 'baseFolderSpec' in file based project directories which is used to match against a list of directories. E.g., for BJ's setup the baseFolderSpec would be something like:
	MyVolume:Squeak:users:*-Squeak
which matches against the appropriate directory (such as 'Cathy-Squeak' in which case 'Cathy' is the login name)."

4329saveChanges-mir -- Michael Rueger -- 5 September 2001
Changes a few project related things for eToyLogin environments:
- save on local disc button can now be disabled/hidden
- in FileList2 a selection is enforced to make sure a project is either saved or the user has to explicitely cancel
Preferences addPreference: #enableLocalSave categories: #(projects publishing) default: true balloonHelp: 'If true, the "save on local disc" button is enabled'.

4330PlayerVectorFix-tk -- Ted Kaehler -- 7 September 2001
By setting the preference #playersAreVectors to true, Players are treated like vectors.  
	This change fixes a bug in the minus (-) operator that caused an error when the geometry category is viewed.
	Note that after setting #playersAreVectors to true in a project, setting it to false has no effect.  It is stuck on.  (Hope to fix this after Scott makes major changes.)"

4331updateFix -- Michael Rueger -- 7 September 2001
Puts in a compatibility hack for fetching updates when running in the browser."

4332DebuggerRestartPref-hmm -- Hans-Martin Mosner <hmm at heeg.de> -- 7 September 2001
As requested by Craig Latta and others:
Make the restart behavior in the debugger a user preference. Defaults to true (= old behavior)"
Preferences
	addPreference: #restartAlsoProceeds
	category: #debug
	default: true
	balloonHelp: 'If this preference is set, the debugger''s restart button and menu item will also proceed. If the preference is not set, the selected context will just be reset to its initial condition, so you may step through it again.'
