The most common is `self flag: 'text'`. This will give you an icon in Nautilus
browser.
But keep in mind that IDEs impose special syntax because they do not provide
you with option to retrieve it yourself.
In Pharo there is no such restriction, so you can do whatever you find most
practical to you and then just collect the places yourself.
E.g. you can trivally retrieve all methods that have "todo" anywhere in method
comment:
('My-Package' asPackage classes flatCollect: #methods)
select: [ :each | each comment isNotNil and: [ each comment
includesSubstring: 'todo' ] ]
