And I will agree to pretend that it was morally justified. Which in this case might actually be so ;-)
I use workspaces for all sorts of things unrelated to "coding". But perhaps some creative
person could come up with a convenient way to apply syntax highlighting to specific portions
of a workspace? It might be nice if I could have a workspace that contains my grocery shopping
list and does syntax highlighting on only the portions of the shopping list that I actually
intended to be interpreted as Smalltalk expressions. But I would be very annoyed if some of
my workspaces started giving syntax errors related to toothpaste, toilet paper, and six-packs
of beer.
Or perhaps a smart workspace could distinguish the difference between sections of text
that were probably intended as Smalltalk, versus text that was more likely intended as
a shopping list?
