@Ben
would an equivalent be to be able to programmatically perform the <Format> menu item that is on the editor menu? Thats a nice idea! I will try it.
@Paul I wan't to reformat the methods. Not sure if you're implying that to format method's code is the responsibility of browsers, i haven't tought of it before, in that case i would agree with you. I've found out there is a class #RBPrettyPrintCodeRefactoring , i'll try to figure out if it would do the work Thank for your answers!

Here is how I learnt a lot about Pharo... 1. Open the editor menu and bring up halos on the <Format> menu item. (key modifier combination varies between OS platform) 2. Click the spanner "debug" icon and choose <inspect morph> 3. Look through all the instance vars for the message that seems to invoke the formatting. Browse all implementors of that message adding "self halt" at the top. 4. Execute the command and trace through how its done behind the scenes, and adapt to your requirements.
HTH, cheers -ben

Hi all,
How do i apply autoformatting to existing packages? I've read somewhere that this functionality used to be at the refactoring menu, but i can't find it, don't know if it has been renamed or moved.
