Hi Daniel,

    I got a walk back 'Error: subscript is out of bounds: 0' when clicking
in SmallLint Results window where there are no result messages.

    I am learning to use RB and found that SmallLint reports 39 'messages
sent but not implemented' bugs for Kernel-Objects and Kernel-Classes. Are
there really bugs for these two categories or it's SmallLint's bug ;-)


Cheers,

PhiHo

> [class allSuperclasses includes: Morph]]

> Will look for every expression, that's a variable, that's really a
