I have a naive question...
Why if the BasicCodeLoader handler looks for .st files does the Workpace offer .ws as the default extension?
Well, the workspace doesn't just use chuck format - in fact, you rarely put in chunk format into a workspace (or do you? I certainly don't). Also, workspaces allow for dynamic local variables - which normal chunk loaders don't. The two things behave differently. .st is explicitly for runnable code - workspaces are for more than just code - more of a scratch pad. -cbc
Why not a single extension for Smalltalk files? (.st) and other for chunked content (changesets?)
