[squeak-dev] UTF8 methods and portability

Hi,

The methods named squeakToUTF8 appears regressive in the light of forks and 
variants of Squeak and Smalltalk.

Is there any specific reason against calling it asUTF8" and so on? The methods 
are not widely used yet to deserve leaving them in the image with a deprecated 
flag.

Is there any idiomatic way to bulk rename a method (implementation and 
senders) in an image? Doing a search and replace is tediously slow.

TIA .. Subbu
