Hello, I was writing a small utility using FileSystem. I had never used FileSystem before. So I am browsing the code trying to learn where to start and how to use it. It took me a little while to learn to do something like: fs := FileSystem store: (DiskStore activeClass createDefault). It would be nice if there were an instance creation method like FileSystem createDefault which would do the above. My utility was renaming some files. Once I had acquired a FileSystemDirectoryEntry instance I needed to examine the name. I see #basename and #fullName. As I browse other classes I see #childNamesAt: and #pathName, etc. I was just curious why #basename and not #baseName? Thanks. Jimmie
