Hi Tim, all,

I was not even aware there was a ‘back button’ and strangely never missed it but what I painfully miss is a ‘back button’ when browsing methods – very often I follow some methods like a trail and then need to get back… the most often just one method ahead and then back – and need to remember what was the previous method :D Is there a reason why no ‘back button’ here or am I just doing this the wrong way?

Thanks for your advice :)

Subject: [squeak-dev] UI suggestion: add recently viewed classes to front of 'find class' list

I find it moderately annoying to have both 'find class' and 'back' in the browser, because far too often I get the wrong one.

So a simple solution is to add the list of recently viewed classes to the list for the 'find class' dialogue. I chose to literally just add them, rather than removing them from the list and adding to the front; it is less work and means you can still scroll to the place where they should be without a surprise.

If we adopt this, the 'back' menu entry can be removed but I haven't bothered yet.

Changeset proffered since it touches several packages but is a small change.
