Just for the record. I imported nearly all the Squeak code in VW 
because our tool is in VW
and we are planning to make all kinds of experience with it. (ok this 
is more than a year that we
are planning that but my feeling is that we will start soon). So thanks 
andreas I will check with my personal collection and fill the holes I 
have.

This was fun to go back to a system with no exception...or mangled set 
and dictionary classes.
