Hi Marcus,
That's a very nice idea but it is obviously very dangerous in ST, given that it's dynamically typed. �You'd be completely relying on the heuristics you gather over some time.
Personally, I don't think it should be done in a completelly automated way, some old smalltalkers should always look at what is going to be cut off from the image before doing so.
Cheers

Which tools do you imagine to allow your users to keep up with the pace of the changes of system?

Best regards
