[squeak-dev] How to fix broken images?

Hi,

certainly people have also had the experience of making a flawed change
to an image which caused then to pop up endlessly debuggers and then
for some reason that image was saved.

Currently I don't have this situation, but how could someone in theory
fix that?

Recovering from changesets is one solution. But what if the changeset
was lost? And the only useable state would be in that image?

Then even going one step further and lets say, that the image write
failed slightly for some reason, due a power outage for example.

Are there tools to load and inspect an image?


Thanks for input and time,
Philip
