Oh, i'll change this! 

For this first release i've introduced a long delay in the fadein animation, 
because for novice users the menu-toolbar will be used, but once you learn the 
keyboard shortcuts to most common operations you don't need it anymore. Also 
the menu-toolbar intention is to present what operations are available on the 
focused shape.

In the next version a Control panel will be available to modify the behavior of 
widgets, icons,  toolbars and the sytem.

Yes! using the search widget you can import  packages, classes and methods 
present in the image.
For external you need to still use Gofer or Monticello outside Gaucho.

This is how i actually code Gaucho within Gaucho.


For the usage of the search widget Look at the screencast named Searching and 
workspaces ( http://gaucho.inf.usi.ch ).
 
Sequence of actions:

cmd-t: for opening the toolbar
navigate to the search button
press enter.
type the name of the package, class or method. 
        For importing a package "family", ( for example Gaucho-Core, 
Gaucho-Morphic, etc...) type Gacho*.
the widget auto completes entries, and is smart enough to filter accordingly. 
(it is still a litte slow, so dont type fast please).
press enter when the desired match is found.
 the imported shape is highlighted in the pampas.


Thanks for the feedback,
Fernando
