Re: [Pharo-dev] Why doesn't the OSX vm show the name of the running image?
Yes - I guess you are right… I suppose the actual difference is that you get 1 icon for something like Finder - and then you can do that wizzy thing where you press a key to show an overview of the different instances and they do show the name of the document. so maybe (and I doubt it would ever happen, but with infinite resource we would) - we could get it to show 1 icon, and let you CMD-` between them.

Tim btw, What is that whizzy thing key? I tried CMD-` and it moved the selection left on item, like a back-tab. cheers -ben On 3 Sep 2014, at 17:46, Ben Coman b...@openinworld.com wrote: Tim Mackinnon wrote: I’m wondering if there is a particular reason why the VM on OSX, just shows the name of the .app file and not the running image?
