Believe it or not, the majority of Smalltalk appear to eschew printed
listings for the browser. I, too, was incredulous about this when I
began, but I have learned that browsing is almost always superior to
printed output in practice.
Understanding that you, too, will be incredulous until you have done
this for awhile, I suggest you use the printOut mechanism. I am not
sure what you require. as you don't indicate in your e-mails what is
insufficient. If you need to printOut entire classes or entire
categories, simply select the class or category in the browser, go to
the menu and select printOut. This will produce an HTML file with a
complete listing in the Squeak default directory.
