Status: Started Owner: damien.c...@gmail.com Labels: Type-ReportDefect Milestone-1.2.2-DevImage Difficulty-Easy New issue 3996 by damien.c...@gmail.com: alt+k opens a StringHolder and not a workspace http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3996 alt+k shortcut is defined in PasteUpMorph>>defaultDesktopCommandKeyTriplets { $k. StringHolder. #open. 'Open a new, blank Workspace'}. Then, alt+k opens a StringHolder and not a plain Workspace. This prevents the user from accessing all features of workspaces (syntax highlighting, old content management, line ending handling...). It would be better to open a workspace. The correct way to do that is probably to ask the default ToolSet: ToolSet default openWorkspace However, the syntax of the table in #defaultDesktopCommandKeyTriplets prevents sending 2 messages to ToolSet. Doing { $k. ToolSet default. #openWorkspace. 'Open a new, blank Workspace'}. is fragile because it fixes the toolset upon initialization of the World. I propose to add #openWorkspace to the ToolSet class (along with a lot of other useful utilities) which would look like: ToolSet class>>openWorkspace ^ self default openWorkspace and then update #defaultDesktopCommandKeyTriplets: { $k. ToolSet. #openWorkspace. 'Open a new, blank Workspace'}.
