Replace VM-level ImageSegment loading with a Smalltalk implementation for old (interpreter-era) projects.<br class="">
<br class="">
Also removes support for writing segments.<br class="">
<br class="">
This overrides the Spur support introduced in System-eem.758.<br class=""></blockquote><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""> So one question is should we delete VM support for ImageSegment from the Spur VM? There's at least 1.5k of generated source for the Spur ImageSegment load and save support, some 2% of the interpreter/primitives source code. That's a lot, and the code is complex and ugly. If it never really worked before IMO we should nuke it asap. If it worked in some fashion perhaps we can schedule its demise for the 6.0 release's VM.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">What do others think?</div></div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br class=""></div><div>As long as you don’t remove it from the Cog VM’s until I no longer need it I’m fine with that.</div><div><br class=""></div><div>Max</div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class=""><div dir="ltr" class=""><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote"><div class=""><br class=""></div></div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr" class=""><div class=""><span style="font-size:small;border-collapse:separate" class=""><div class="">_,,,^..^,,,_<br class=""></div><div class="">best, Eliot</div></span></div></div></div>
