Hello.
I have some files that I created using the old syntax of GNU Smalltalk.
With GNU Smalltalk 3.0.1, I can't easily edit those files anymore.
The new command, smalltalk-bang, doesn't seem to work with files using
the old syntax.
A silly example:
!Object methodsFor: 'stuff'!
"Newton method for swuare roots -- this is the iterating part."
newtonIterate: n | newValue |
newValue := 0.5 * (n + (self / n)).
( (n - newValue) abs < 0.00000001 )
ifTrue: [ ^newValue ]
ifFalse: [ "newValue printNl." ^self newtonIterate: newValue ]
!
"Newton method for square roots."
newton
(self < 0)
ifTrue: [ self error: 'Negative numbers have no square root!'
]
ifFalse: [ ^self newtonIterate: self ] !
If you try hitting ! several times, you will notice that
it will both produce the bang on the text and go,
sometimes to the end of the method, and sometimes somewhere inside a
string (if there is a ! inside the string).
Thank you,
J.
PS: I assigned to component base classes because there is no "Emacs
interactor" option...
