Hi PhiHo,

The TraitsBrowser is the ImageBrowser enhanced with some features to
work with traits. With the TraitsBrowser for example you can browse a
trait composition: The browser automatically adds new panes to the
right (similar to the finder of OS X). Or there are some more menu
items and drag-n-drop support implemented in the TraitsBrowser.

Probably there is (or was) a bug in the file browser for windows. It
works on my mac. Maybe this is fixed in the newer version of
OmniBrowser. The version that currently comes with the Traits package
is rather old now (version 184), so this might have been fixed in the
meantime.

It definitely needs a 3.7 image because we use the kernel cleanups from
KCP that were introduced recently.

Hm, this depends on the image (what is left?). One thing that might be
a problem is that traits are stored in Monticello (on SqueakSource). So
you have to have Monticello to be able to load it (programmatically I
assume, since there is no user interface in MVC). A workaround could be
to produce a changeset in advance. So, I guess it would need some work
but should not be a big problem. I never tried because I don't use MVC.
Do you need this for some reason?

No, unfortunately not. But the papers at
http://www.iam.unibe.ch/~scg/Research/Traits/index.html might be useful
to get started. If you have further questions just ask!
