Doru, One of the things/aspects that I miss a bit is the 'objects' part. In your overall description/presentation you talk about 'objects', but right now I would say it are mainly 'code objects' like classes & methods and friends, and some IDE artefacts, like menus.
What about arbitrary (user) objects ? Literal constants, like 123, 'some string' ? Globals like the Transcript ? Singletons accessible by class side accessors, like announcers ? An evaluation functionality, just type an expression ? Examples ? The clipboard (contents), open windows, processes, ... Anyway, I am sure you get the idea ;-) Sven > On 07 Dec 2014, at 19:07, Tudor Girba <tu...@tudorgirba.com> wrote: > > Hi Sven, > > Thanks for the kind words.
