everything you can do in calypso you can find it there). 

Thanks. But Spotter can hardly be a replacement for the keyboard. Spotter is
a marvel by itself, however please try to survive developing in Pharo for a
minute without a mouse - or just jumping to different panes in Calypso,
debugger and inspector. 

For instace, I checked all the shortcuts under ctrl-o-s. The shortcut
ClySwitchFocusToPreviousBrowserPaneCommand>>fullBrowserShortcutActivation
should take you to the previous panel. It works for the top four panels, but
not for the coding panel - or am I too clumsy? Furthermore, if you edit the
code in Calypso, there are hidden shortcuts ctrl-1, ctrl-2, ctrl-3 etc.
which take you to different tabs of the coding (bottom) panel. While editing
the code, press ctrl-1 (this takes you to the Comment tab) and then go back
to your code by using the keyboard. You can type in the code editor, however
the panel is not selected (the blue frame is missing in the dark theme), and
there is no cursor, so you are typing in the dark. And so forth.

The problem is not people trying to edit the code in emacs, the problem is
how to give them the experience which was already invented and works well.
There's no danger that Pharo will not be Pharo anymore, if we do that.
Visual programming is not the mouse to click on the editor panels. And, in
my opinion, a lot has already been done in this direction. I really don't
understand all the fuss in this thread.
