Hi John,

I'm not sure if you mean collapse or delete, because you say 'collapse',
but also say 'by using the X halo' (which deletes).

No matter.  If you already have a reference to the morph in the
workspace, just execute 'aMorph collapse' to collapse it, or 'aMorph
delete' to delete it.

(I just love that even though I've never sent #collapse before, I was
able to guess how to do it without opening a browser.  Yay, Squeak!)

BTW, if you don't have a reference to a morph in the workspace, but want
one, then you can:

-click on the Workspace's menu button (in the frame, not in its halo)
-select the option 'create textual references to dropped morphs'
-drop a morph onto the workspace.  A reasonable name will be pasted at
the current insertion point.
