Hi all - is there an easy way to google Smalltalk, so to speak? If I know the class name but not its location in the System Browser, is there an easy shortcut which will take me directly to the code for the class?

If I understand, you want to find a class, because there is no Class Finder as their is a Method Finder. If that's the case then roll your mouse pointer over the class categories pane, the first pane in an open browser, and press Esc and then Return, and you'll get a window asking for the name of the class you want. Or put the mouse pointer in the same place, and press Command+f (on a Mac).

Awesome! Works perfectly.

ALT+F with the cursor in the class category.

Alternatively, type the class-name in any workspace, transcript, TextMorph, annotation pane, code-pane, or anywhere else that affords typing, and then hit alt-b.
