If Tim had not posted this comment - "I love the fact you can move to a new method with unsaved changes and no nag prompt".- I would never have known that it was possible to do this. Since I always save my methods before moving on I had never experienced this behaviour.
I think this is an another instance of Calypso violating "the law of least surprise". Just like the appearance/disappearance of the "new object" tab, this behaviour was totally unexpected by me. I think it is wonderful that you can move on to a new method before you save the one you are editing - but surely the natural way of achieving this is to make the tabs work more like tabs ina standard text editor. You should be able to have as many methods opened in tabs - saved or unsaved - as you want. Why not have a system where if you CTRL or SHIFT click on a method it adds that method to the set of tabs in the editing area? That's what I would have expected all along. When you see a set of tabs in a row you assume that you can add to them. -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html
