I suppose I could try to back-port Connectors to 3.0, but I'm afraid
that the lack of many fixes that I and others submitted since 3.0
might keep it from working well.
Hmm.. just got it loaded in to 3.0 (you have to make sure that you
don't load Morph>>privateAddMorph:atIndex: and just add the notify
line at the end of the existing version).
I can make connectors, etc., but since 3.0 there have been a number of
changes to TextMorphs (they now are bordered), event handling
(ActiveWorld/ActiveHand/ActiveEvent), scroll pane fixes, etc. that
will require some work to get right.
The question is this: is it worth while making a port for 3.0
(especially considering that I'd also probably have to back-port some
of my fixes), or should I just stick to 3.2 and later?
After all, 3.2 is going to be the released version Real Soon Now,
right?
