How can we proceed? Because this coloring functionality is really important. Stef
anyone an idea?
I'm trying to think. Looks like it would be good to be able to make a distinction between symbols and selectors (selectors installed in method dictionaries)
yes, this would improve code completion a bit, too, as there are more symbols than symbols that are actually names of methods.
The data could be created per environment (Smalltalk globals) the first time and then cached till shutdown. (it would be an array of size 46451, pointing to existing symbols).
The environment could cache sent selectors, too⦠pablo did an experiment with that.
