If you use Pharo, you can also do that Note that you have to change 'Selector' with 'Example', and then you can type a list of arguments separated by a dot and the expected result. (If you want some inner details, it will do something like methodFor: {_WHAT_YOU_HAVE_ENTER_}) Have fun, Ben On Apr 28, 2012, at 4:00 PM, Ben Coman wrote:
I just discovered this new "bit of magic" from the Newbies list. My first impression playing with it is that MethodFinder>>methodFor: should be somehow more prominent in Tools>Finder and also in PharoByExample book. Quite a unique feature and demonstration of Smalltalk power for newcomers.

Hello I use Squeak 4.3, Update 11860. I want to remove the trailing spaces and or tabs and LF of a String something like 'abc ' should just be 'abc'. If I remember that there was a method in class String to something like this. Is this correct? Is there a package with additional String convenience methods?
you probably want
'abc ' withoutTrailingBlanks
You can find that method by evaluating or printing
MethodFinder methodFor: { {'abc '} . 'abc' } (a list with arguments {'abc '} and an expected result ( 'abc' ))
