Stef, I suspect that Object Arts would favor #printOn:delimiter:. They would also probably have a #displayOn:delimeter: method. Their approach is that one 'displays' for users and 'prints' for developers; they generally don't much like #as* methods, with the exception of true conversion methods (such as #asOrderedCollection, etc.). #displayOn: is used my morphic, which will cause me some hassles some time soon.

stephane.ducasse@inria.fr 1/16/2009 12:55:53 PM >>> Hi all
I would like to have your point of view on the following: on the class collection there are two methods asStringOn: aStream delimiter: delimString asStringOn: aStream delimiter: delimString last: lastDelimString printOn: aStream delimiter: delimString printOn: aStream delimiter: delimString last: lastDelimString which are nearly doing the same. I suggest to remove the printOn: version since it prints: '1'', ''2'' & ''3'. while asString '1, 2 & 3' I do not see any use of the printOn version and there is no sender (except tests that I will remove :).
