David,
Very nice indeed!
One quick suggestion: classes without a comment need to have an icon,
and really really ugly one, for obvious reason: to get rid of it by
writing a comment ASAP :)

Hi there,
taking the suggestions from the "On icons" thread, I have now changed
and extended
the icons in columns like this:
- Removed icons for extension methods ('+'), instead use italic font for
the method
name label if it's a extension method and additionally red color if it's
an override
(as Lukas suggested)
- Use new icons for abstract method and super send (credits to Stef who
did the hard
work of drawing them).
The new icons make clear whether an abstract method or a method sending
super is
redefined in subclasses or not (they get an additional triangle pointing
down if they
are redefined).
For a complete list of supported icons see:
http://smallwiki.unibe.ch/hermion/icons/
There are still some icons missing for rare situations, if someone
volunteers to draw
them, we'd be happy. ;)
- Explaining labels for all icons (keep the mouse over them)
- Most icons are clickable: Clicking on a super send icon brings you to
the method in
the superclass, clicking on a triangle down icon brings you to the
overridding method
in the subclass or gives you a list of candidates if there are several
sub-implementations.
This I consider as a very convenient extension.
- Classes or Traits can implement the method #browserIcon (answering a
symbol for the
icon name) to define the icon they will get in the class column themselves
If you have more suggestions or wishes concerning icons (or anything
else), let me know.
Current ideas include to introduce icons for trait classes and methods
(trait methods
are shown in italic right now, hence somehow conflicting with extension
methods), or
to have an icon for methods without any additional implementor.
I would be interested to know whether you consider these ideas as valuable.
To load the latest version of OB, you can use this Installer script:
Installer wiresong
project: 'ob';
install: 'OmniBrowser-dr.419';
install: 'OB-Standard-dr.355';
install: 'OB-Morphic-dr.57';
install: 'OB-Enhancements-dr.217'.
Cheers,
David
