While looking around in Iliad source code, I noticed that

Dolphin Smalltalk makes a -- quite useful -- distinction
between
printString - what the developer wants to see
displayString - what the user gets to see
GNU Smalltalk also has the same distinction, as you surely know:
'abc' printString = '''abc''' (prints as 'abc')
'abc' displayString = 'abc' (prints as abc without quotes)
Also, I'm seeing that Iliad.Response supports the "usual"
streaming methods #nextPut: and #nextPutAll. What about
Object extend [
asResponse [
| response |
<category: 'converting'>
response := Iliad.Response ok.
self respondOn: response.
^response
]
respondOn: aResponse [
<category: 'responding'>
self displayOn: aResponse.
]
]
Yes, looks nice.
