CHANGELOG
--------------------

	0001613: [ENH] truncatedChanges-ls
	Date: 4 September 2003
	Author: Lex Spoon

	Handle truncated changes files more gracefully. The problem actually
	can happen, and has been observed at Georgia Tech, e.g. if someone
	downloads a file but does not complete the download. The current
	behavior is that pink debuggers pop up; this is extremely confusing for
	new users when it happens in places like the Browser.

	The solution in this changeset is to fall back on the decompiler. A
	more thorough solution should probably trigger a systematic  
invalidation
	of all source pointers past the end of the changes file, because as  
time
	goes on the changes file will eventually grow large enough to cover the
	lost code and the routine will start returning random method code for
	the invalid source pointers.
	----------------
	0001354: MIDI port name is garbled in selection dialog
	Change Set:		AddTransMIDIPort
	Date:			31 May 2005
	Author:			Tooru Nosse
	
	fix for query of MIDI portName with SJIS name
	enable translation for midi port selection
	----------------
	0002341: MorphicEventDispatcher minor refactoring
	0001284: Smalltalk condenseSources leads to UndefinedObject(Object) 
 >>error:
	0003180: Selector requester does not strip blanks
	tests from 0001798: #critical:ifError: on Semaphore does not always  
signal the semaphore
	test from 0003133: [BUG][FIX] Float>>#asIEEE32BitWord and  
#fromIEEE32Bit:
	----------------
	Change Set: dupAllCtrlAltKeysPref-dew
	Date: 13 December 2004
	Author: Doug Way

	Adds a new preference duplicateAllCtrlAndAltkeys to duplicate all  
Ctrl and Alt modifier key 	
	commands, which causes all Ctrl key commands to behave the same as  
Alt-key commands. 	
	The original Ctrl (a.k.a. 'shift') key commands are still available  
via Ctrl-Shift and Alt-Shift.

	This differs from the existing ctrlAlt prefs which only duplicate/ 
swap the eight editing keys. 	
	Also includes code to prevent these other two conflicting prefs from  
being activated at the
	same time.

	The three related prefs (swapCtrlAndAltKeys, duplicateCtrlAndAltKeys, 	
	duplicateAllCtrlAndAltKeys) should really be made into a radio  
button preferences set
	sometime in the future (like the Halo look preferences), since only  
one can be turned on at
	a time. This would eliminate the need for the #changed methods.

	See 'modifier' discussion on squeak-dev from 12/3/2004 for more  
details on why this was 	provided.
