Two quick questions this morning :
1) If I am using a package from squeaksource.com and this package only works with Squeak now (methods have been removed from Pharo, methods only exists in Squeak, different behavior in Pharos vs Squeak, whatever the reason), what is the preferred way of committing a works-in-Pharo version to SqueakSource ? I wouldn't want the same problem happening to Squeakers, i.e. someone loads this package in Squeak and discover that the new version only works in Pharo now! Perhaps the answer is "Pharo needs its own SqueakSource repository" but in the meantime, what should I do and how? May be postfix the package name with -Pharo
2) Is there a preferred way of adding settings/preferences to the Pharo environment, if so can someone redirect me to the proper documentation/link on how-to-do-it ? I'm a bit confused as to what I'd have to use since there seems to be some old (?!?!) Preferences stuff still present in Pharo.
Probably only in the external package. Please do not use Preferences. We will remove the class probably in 1.3.
In my case, I'd like to be able to specify my own parseableSourceCodeTemplate instead of the default one.
Let us know if this is answering your question. I suggest that you package your setting in a separate package.
