Stef,
Sorry - I think you should do what I am asking :)
Specifically, I'm asking that we add a few methods. They will complain under conditions that some might find "violent," but if not used, they won't change anything.
The alternative (best solution IMHO) would be to change behavior, but even Cincom didn't want to go that far with #next. They *did* at least consider it.
Is that helpful? Please note that your English dwarfs my (non-existent) French. Some days, I forget you are from across the pond. Let me know if I can clarify anything.
Yes thanks. I have some work to finish and I will have a real look at the problems and solutions. I remember that I hated the exception raised in VW for at end. I made me lose hours of strange behavior.
Bill

Stef,
Thanks. I think you will find that it will sit idly by and hurt nothing; it will help anyone who uses it, even if they don't realize it going into the process. Going back in time, it took me time to realize that OA got it right
sorry bill your english lost me completely. Can you phrase for non native :) ?

Ok I will have a look at your stream proposal.

Sig,
Deal. Please have a look at my alternate steams proposal - the added #nexMany:, #nextOne, etc. I have given up on making streams robust with existing protocol, so adding some methods is the answer. When a stream hits the end, it needs to squawk - the added methods will help me help you, and (IMHO) are our most likely course forward.
I use LOTS of streams, so it's a Big Deal(TM). But please check the docs and see what you think.

Sig,
Search. I've said it for YEARS now - I've been VERY CLEAR ON THIS. Maybe I'm too clear?? Yes, I'm mad, but not enough to hurt Smalltalk, and not really at you.
How about an electronic handshake and some movement toward making FFI work?
i am not offended. and of course i will continue my work towards making FFI work regardless of having enemies around or not, because i also need it for myself :)
so, lets keep moving.. and cooperate on fields we can.
Bill
