Well, I guess several of us should be scolded for missing an even more obvious way: use Scamper! Why go to another application to get the code when you can do it inside Squeak?

1. From the World menu choose "open..." then "web browser"
2. Tell Scamper the url and the code appears.
3. From the main panel menu in Scamper choose "view source" and the text appears in a new workspace.
4. Select all of the text in the workspace (cmd-a or a single click before the first character).
5. From the workspace menu choose "more..." then "file it in" (or if you like shortcuts: hold the shift key while you bring up the menu and go straight to "file it in")

job complete.

Now, why doesn't Scamper have the normal Squeak menus available? That way we could file in directly from Scamper and save a step. Who wants to fix that?
