"your code"

Are you sure you read MY mail, Sven ?

The snippet in not MINE ! ��It is in the Pharo 2.0 HelpBrowser !

Were you even born when I was first unhappy with Smalltalk Digitalk/ParcPlace fiasco ?

Do you know anything about MY code over the last decades ?

Have I EVER troubled you with MY code ?

Sorry to be persistent but I am unhappy when people don't read correctly what I write ;-)

I did take the time to run your code, I don't have to do that.

This was your second example:

�� Transcript open.

�� | announcer |
�� World announcer
�� on: WindowOpened
�� send: #value
�� to: [:ea | ea inspect. Transcript show: 'A new window was opened';cr].

Whether you did a 'Do it' or 'Inspect it' is irrelevant, you executed it.

It has 2 separate problems:

1.

you have to say #value: not #value because your block takes an argument.

that is a mistake that you introduced yourself and that was not in the original example.

but as I said, there should not be an emergency evaluator (although it contained the explanation) - so that is something we can try to improve.

thanks again for reporting that.

2.

ea inspect opens an inspector, which is a window, which triggers your code, which is an infinite loop.

I can't say this any other way.
