Did you check the number of senders of #flag: in a recent Pharo image? You will be surprised that not all come from Squeak ;)
By sharing I want to just show what is possible and others may find it valuable for their own work in the given or in a customized form. It is not a "best practice", more a "these things helped me" and as a source of inspiration. Bye T. Gesendet: Donnerstag, 12.
