Welcome david
Just a remark, the file dialogs are not really good and torsten started to
design a better one named arbour, we started also to create one
with spec2 based on the one of Peter I guess but we could not focus on it and
finish.
There is the FileDialog in Pharo-contributions.
I wanted to have one that
- has nice default
- remember the last visited places
on per instance
Now what is super important is that you can improve your situation while
improving ours and the one
of everybody because Pharo is really about a nice ecosystem on which its users
can have an impact.
So if all smalltalkers in Pharo would spend 30 min for Pharo each week and
contribute then Pharo would be different
