Hi,
I'm investigating parts of the Debugger's implementation and am just wondering why Debugger>>#contents:notifying: does add an alarm to the world. Never seen this before, what is the purpose of these alarms? And what is the reason of that magic number (200 milliseconds)? I cannot even find any sender of #alarms in my image ...
Curious, Christoph

Not sure about the Debugger's use of it, but Morphic Alarms in general are used to do something in the future, like display a help balloon, but with the ability to be canceled before the expiry.
