I've finally had a chance to play with the Squeak 3.9 release under Windows.
I like the main toolbar, the look and functionality. It causes an error if I click on the view-world-hierarchy icon, a particularlly frustrating one since it doesn't actually appear and the screen seems to lock up unless you tab to Squeak. This doesn't seem like it's fully done, so I'm not sweating it.
What really is troubling me is that I can't seem to make the Workspace work. I'm not sure if the key-bindings have been changed to Ctrl from Alt, but neither Ctrl nor Alt + D/I don't seem to work, i.e, there's no indication that they're doing anything, they don't seem to produce any results (although the D seems to occasionally erase everything selected).
Anyone else experiencing anything like this?

The Toolbar is from SmallLand... it's not enabled by default, thus is never got tested. Back when we did the merge of SmallLand, I hoped that the Smallland peopel would use (and test) this, but they did not, at least we got no fixes after the big merge. Nevertheless, I think it was good to have 3.9 as a mergepoint between SqueakLand/SmallLand and Squeak.org, even if it turned out that neither SmallLand nor SqueakLand ever had a look.

No problem at all here.

I should also point out that the "Do it again" menu item doesn't seem to do anything (but ocasionally erase the contents of the workspace) and there is no inspect or "do it" menu item.
I have a 3.8gamma on this machine used for the Bots Inc stuff and it works fine (with Ctrl & Alt & menu items).
Are you using Windows (XP SP2), Markus?

I personally don't use that, so I have no idea... it has nothing to do with "do it", the only useful I know of is to do a "search and replace" and repeat it over and over again. And that seems to work here.
and there is no inspect or "do it" menu item.
No problem here, the Worspace has "inspect it" and "do it".
How do you open a Worskpace?

No, Mac OS X.

OK, I redownloaded and not only does everything work, but the old menus are back and the "view object hierarchy" works without crashing the system.
So...yay?<s>
