Hi, I would like to make a suggestion that may lead to a long debate but let's go: What do you think about deprecating ~= and replace it with != for example? Why? In mathematics the symbol ~ is used for equivalence. To me (and I think any newcomer to Smalltalk) the first guess of the meaning of ~= is equivalent to => missed. The meaning is totally different: "Answer whether the receiver and the argument do not represent the same object."
I never used this method because it is too confusing for me. I prefer to use (a = b) not or (a = b) ifFalse:. So, the discussion is open ... Christophe
