Again, as I said, we have a problem with finding a performant solution for order. If anyone would like to have a look, it would be useful.

Looking for class

by Damien Cassou

I've just tried to use to spotter to get the code of the #class method. I typed 'class' and Spotter showed a lot of methods but the method I was looking for was not in the top. In the Emacs equivalent of Spotter (helm), closest and exact matches are shown first. I guess helm uses a notion of distance to order results. In helm, I could have typed "class$" to get only methods ending with "class". -- Damien Cassou http://damiencassou.seasidehosting.st "Success is the ability to go from one failure to another without losing enthusiasm." --Winston Churchill

Re: [Pharo-dev] GTSpotter, the 95% case

Hi, There is no processor for that. Now, if the order would work the current processor would be enough. But, if you want just that message, you can write your own processor. Would you like to try? It would be a useful exercise and I can guide you and we can use your questions to guide the documentation.
