(or position if it's a WriteStream) From the ANSI standard: "content returns a collection that contains the receiver's _past_ and future sequence values, in order". The method which behaves as you expect, is called upToEnd. Cheers, Henry

[Pharo-project] Welcome text

by Schwab,Wilhelm K

The welcome workspace in 1.1 (at least the copy I have handy) tells the user to evaluate ProfStef go. This is far less attractive than the browser started from the help menu. Whether the text should refer to the menu or contain the same code is up to you. Bill

[Pharo-project] standardWindowExtent

by Yanni Chiu

In RealEstateAgent>>standardWindowExtent, there is a line: allowedArea extent - (grid * (maxLevel + 1 * 2) + (grid // 2)) min: StandardSize I changed the #min: to a #max:, and now I get a SystemBrowser that I don't have to resize every time, to make it bigger. The old solution I used in PharoCore-1.0 was to set Preferences>>bigDisplay on, then adjust the factor for scaling the initialExtent. But Preferences is gone from Pharo-1.1. Is the intended behaviour better realized using #max: ?
