[Newbies] underscore / left-arrow query

hello,

when i first started using squeak a couple of years ago, the assignment operator was displayed as a left arrow, which i really like. it looks very clean to my eyes (better to me than the pascal like := syntax).

in my current image, a seaside 2.8-530 image, in workspaces etc, i don't get my lovely left arrow when I assign variables; just a regular underscore.

is it now considered bad form to use the left arrow, or can I set this in preferences somewhere such that my underscore is converted to an exciting left-arrow? if it's bad form or broken, i'll mend my ways.

I tried to search for preference settings, but without joy. Google had an unreasonably high noise ratio as well.

thanks. Kel.
