Indeed, there is much to say about the String API :) Thanks for mentioning this, I'm gathering missing behavior like this ! On 8 April 2015 at 17:56, Norbert Hartl <norbert@hartl.name> wrote:

Thank you both, this will work. :)
In the Moose configuration, there is a CollectionExtensions that allows
you to do this: 'BormParticipant' removePrefix: 'Borm' "-> 'Participant'". 'BormParticipant' removeSuffix: 'Participant' "-> 'Borm'"
For Pharo 5, we should move these extensions to Pharo.
Isn't it the case that a remove* methods mostly return what has been removed? Wouldn't be
withoutPrefix: withoutSuffix:
I guess withoutPrefix: would probably makes more sense.
As well as
allButPrefix: allButSuffix:
but to me the sound of them is weird.
