If that is in fact how things can work, there should be an abstract super class for all configurations (or at least a trait they all use to avoid duplicate code) and a method that loads the baseline. ProfStef would be a lot more useful if it made use of Polymorph: a table of contents in a left pane, select an item and the righ pane shows the content, actions replaced with buttons rather than forcing a lot of right-clicking. To the extent that those things are difficult, we need easy-to-use tree models. From what I have been able to figure out of the tutorial, a wiki page would be more helpful and more likely to be read. If you "force" loading of code, then there should be some benefit in the form of interaction. Danny Chan has written ProfStefBrowser (in the same repository as ProfStef) which has both browsing and interactive (ProfStef next) capabilities. Tudor Girba has also written a proof-of-concept using Glamour: Gofer new squeaksource: 'glamoroust'; package: 'ConfigurationOfGlamoroust'; load. (Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfGlamoroust) perform: #loadDefault. And then: GTProfStef open (You spawn the new lesson by command+o) Cheers Laurent Laffont My question stands.

There are incantations in the beginner workspace, but what happens for things not listed there? You must know about Metacello. As you can noticed, that's why I added the link to the tutorial.
