I would prefer to make sure that we ensure that people can load file with underscores. And one day we discard that. On Nov 26, 2010, at 1:35 PM, Lukas Renggli wrote:

I agree, removing the option in Pharo 1.2 is maybe a bit early. The idea is to gradually increase the pain of underscore assignments, to finally get rid of them.

Hi Lukas,

In Pharo 1.2 we hopefully remove the option (underscore assignments) to get rid of them for all and forever.

You wont get rid of them just by removing the option. :(

There is a lot of "legacy" code out there that is not converted and will then not be loadable in Pharo >= 1.2 or greater.

Keeping the option would allow to load this code and convert it to standard assignment in the future. Otherwise one has to use Squeak or Pharo < 1.2 to convert before using it in recent images.

On the other side we havent cared on backward compatibily too much anyway (yet) ...

Bye T.
