- Pragmas: In the beginning only VW had pragmas. I implemented the same API for Squeak 3.9. Today all existing Smalltalk platforms support these kind of pragmas. Pragmas and exceptions are suddenly portable, what is a great win.
It is interesting to note that of course, after this was added to 3.9, there was someone *very hard* arguing that adding Pragmas was a very dumb idea... Who that person was is left as an exercise to the reader of course ;-) Marcus -- Marcus Denker -- http://www.marcusdenker.de INRIA Lille -- Nord Europe. Team RMoD.
