Hi everyone. I have been using Pharo sine I got my M1 MacBookAir in late 
December. Before then, I was a VAST user since around 1995.

I have a question about packaging. Example, in VAST, I have an Application 
called Family_Accounts. Inside that I have some classes such as FAEntry, 
FABudget and so on. If I wanted to extend String to add an instance to convert 
to ScaledDecimal but using my special amount strings. I select the New menu 
item and then select either a class or an extension. As I want to extend 
String, I select Extension and then, within my Family_Accounts, I can see the 
String class so that I can extend it.

In Pharo, I can have a package called Family_Accounts. I can extend String, OK  
but my extension stays within the original package with, optionally, a 
Family_Accounts classification.  I can’t see how to add String to the 
Family_Accounts package to keep everything together in one place. Can this be 
done?

David
