squeak-dev images come with some documentation. When you first open an
image, a script manager appears and some info is written here. You can
reopen the ScriptManager from the world->open... menu. However, there
is very few documents.

Please submit the bugs to bugs.squeak.org. You have to choose between
two projects: Squeak and Squeak Packages. Choose the first one if it
is related to Squeak itself. You also have to choose the package in
which the bug appears (OmniBrowser, eCompletion...).

Someone must write documentation about these icons. David, can you
find some time?

Look at the TestRunner class which is a good example of ToolBuilder use.
