[Vm-dev] Regarding TestOSAPlugin & Applescript

[Ken G. Brown]

Ok, thought maybe that was the case.

On a slightly related topic, do you think it would be worthwhile going though the plugins and make the names more consistent with the convention? I'm not sure exactly all that is involved but perhaps some cleanup would improve things for the future?

I was rooting around everywhere learning where things happened and it being the first time through, I was initially confused by the following:

internal plugin B3DEnginePlugin generated as Squeak3D
internal plugin BalloonEnginePlugin generated as B2DPlugin
internal plugin BitBltSimulation generated as BitBltPlugin
internal plugin DSAPlugin generated as DSAPrims
internal plugin DeflatePlugin generated as ZipPlugin
internal plugin FFIPlugin generated as SqueakFFIPrims
internal plugin KlattSynthesizerPlugin generated as Klatt
internal plugin LargeIntegersPlugin generated as LargeIntegers

The rest seem to have matching names and folders everywhere.

Thx,
Ken
