RBSqueak - what's next

Hi Daniel,

<squeak newbie>

I installed the Refactoring Browser in a fresh (#4567) image.

I was fooled at first by the 'default browser' thing.
I typed cmd-b and got a 'System Browser'.

When I opened a pop-up menu on a class I noticed it was an RB in disguise :-). Great!

I have one problem though:
The RB testsuite breaks SUnit. When running 'all tests' a
debugger opens, saying 'message not understood: errors'.

When inspecting in the debugger:

updateWindow: aTestResult
        aTestResult errors size + aTestResult failures size = 0
        <rest of method omitted>
        
it appears that aTestResult is a boolean (false) instead of a
TestResult.

My apologies if this is already known.

Anyway, thank you all for the free Smalltalk with the cool direct
manipulation UI </squeak newbie>

Cheers
