just as a bit of reassurement, Squeak saves anything you accepted in the .changes file. Even the doIts. So you really have to kill your changes file to loose source. If you haven't reached the Monticello part yet (Squeak's source code versioning system), here is a simple way to save your source: In each of the top Browser panes the right click menu (Windows) has a "fileout" item to save the method, the whole method category or the class or the whole class category. This depends on the pane you clicked. One method to get source back (also into a fresh image): From the World Menu (open) or the Tools Flap you get a FileList. If you select a .st file you get the option to file it in or to browse the code. If you select the .changes file you get the option to select recent changes. Which you then can browse and selectively file in. So actually it's harder to loose source in Squeak than in non Smalltalk systems. Which does not say that "noviceMode" not being "novice programmer mode" is at least confusing :-)) -- Cheers, Herbert _______________________________________________ Beginners mailing list Beginners@lists.squeakfoundation.org http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/beginners
