I'm assuming the documentation is wrong even though, fullName seems a
more logical message
name than full.

Which is in error?

Sending #full (that's the name of the message that is spelled "full",
like #at:put: is the name of the message that is spelled "at: ... put:
...") is correct. I avoided the term "name" because it is used for some
messages that return a String.

k well the manual has fullName listed.

http://www.gnu.org/software/smalltalk/manual-base/html_node/File_002dfile-name-management.html#File_002dfile-name-management

so that is an incorrect manual entry.
