Hi 

While  reviewing the class comment Eddie did for the class Morph I was
wondering about Morph naming.

| m |
m _ Morph new openInWorld.
m name: 'someArbitraryString'.

m name "<ALT-P>"
	'a Morph<someArbitraryString>(2814)'


What are the reasons behind this asymmetry?

What do I have to do if I just want to name a morph for later retrieval?

    (World submorphNamed: 'someArbitraryString') == m 
gives back true.


What should be put in the class comment at the moment to explain this
issue?

Thanks in advance four your suggestions


Hannes
