Yes this is what I think. The interface of SmallLint should really be improved. Stef On Sep 11, 2009, at 11:21 PM, Michael Roberts wrote:
i would be quite happy if the "this variable is not used" was picked up by a lint rule. the "your using this variable and you haven't yet assigned a value" is sometimes nice. however, if lint/slint/slime (?) had a nice permanent UI mechanism in the browser (i haven't checked) then I would get rid the former in preference of such a framework that can point out all sorts of useful things with the code when you accept methods. could then be package / context aware etc.

Hi guys
I would like what you think of these wonderful popups that try to help to write cool code but just get in my way: "this variable is not used.... you did not store into it....
Could we agree that we are adults? and this is more a pain than anything else?
