Whew!  Here are a few final updates for 3.7beta, plus the prompt to
upgrade to 3.7gamma or 3.8alpha.

The other updates are a simple guard-clause addition fix from Ned, which
should be safe.  Also, a couple of UI default changes resulting from the
earlier UI poll on the squeakpeople site.  This sets the default setting
of #browseWithDragNDrop to true, but doesn't actually turn on the
preference for those updating.  The gamma candidate/final 3.7 image
preferences will be based on the defaults, though, so it will be turned
on there.

I'm going to put together the actual gamma candidate image and put it on
the ftp site tomorrow, that's not ready quite yet.  3.7final will be
released in 2 weeks, assuming the gamma candidate is okay.

3.8alpha is now open for business... Michael and Yoshiki have been
promised that the m17n stuff will go in first, which will probably be a
series of changesets.  Then all the other pending approved changes for
3.8alpha will go in.

Adds a guard in Process>>terminate to deal with terminated processes
whose suspendedContext is nil.

5974SetTwoUIDefaultPrefs-dew -- Doug Way -- 17 July 2004
A couple of DoIts which set the default value for preferences
#browseWithDragNDrop and #scrollBarsNarrow to true.  See the UI Defaults
vote on SqueakPeople site.  (#scrollBarsNarrow has been set to true in
the 3.7alpha/beta image for a while now.)
(These defaults don't appear to be defined in source code anywhere...
they're only in the Preferences dictionary.)"
(Preferences preferenceAt: #browseWithDragNDrop) defaultValue: true.
(Preferences preferenceAt: #scrollBarsNarrow) defaultValue: true.

5975FixedScrollbarWidth-dew -- Doug Way -- 16 July 2004
Make scrollbar width no longer be dependent on default text font size. 
(See UI Defaults vote on SqueakPeople site.)"

5976advanceToGammaOr38-dew -- Doug Way -- 17 July 2004
This is the last update for version 3.7beta.  In its postscript is an
executable statement that will set the version forward to either
3.7gamma or 3.8alpha, at user option."
