I suggest you to stay friendly if you want that we spend our time to reply nicely to you and I will not be as violent as you and I fully understand your frustration. There is nothing more violent that a huge silence.

Guido, I have at times opened files in binary mode to avoid encoding hassles. That said, I have noticed a BIG improvement with encoding in 1.1.1. I use Ubuntu 9.10 on my laptop and and (IIRC) 10.4 on my machine at home Bill ________________________________________ From: pharo-project-bounces(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr [pharo-project-bounces(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr] On Behalf Of Guido Stepken [gstepken(a)googlemail.com] Sent: Thursday, November 18, 2010 11:15 AM To: pharo-project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr Subject: [Pharo-project] Pharo beginner bugs ....

+1 too Though I created filter in my web client declining such messages, I still think that for newcomers or people searching the net this is not good to see all that stuff. It's very easy to get lost in this heap of emails.
