Hi Damien, Pharo guys,

Here are my observations on my Linux (openSuse 11.1, KDE):

1. pharo opens in a window smaller than usual, half of Preference
browser is out of borders.

2. swapMouse buttons works again, thanks for that guys! Now just the
automatic platform dependent swap is missing ...

3.copy&paste:

-copy multiple lines from Thunderbird email client and to pharo doesn't
handle line end well. In Pharo the [] is added at the end

-copy multiple lines from Pharo to Thuderbird works correctly

-copy&paste between two Pharo image doesn't work well: paste multiple
images to another Pharo eats line ends!

4. OB Package Browser

- I really like the back/forth button and history, like on web browsers!
- still a bit slow on my 3.2MHz machine
- for search field, it is not quite clear when it starts searching
- inplace help in search field is lost after you search something
- ballon help could help explaining how to search?
- autocomplete search field would be just perfect ...
- or filter like search: you type some letters, after a second of delay
it automatically filter out classes starting with that character.
Something like that... We the web guys are spoiled with such fields,  I
know ... ;)

5.default look&feel, close/min/max buttons

- it would be really nice to us non-Mac users to put those buttons just
the opposite and make their meaning more clear (X for close, etc) I know
 somewhere the skin can be changed, but in so many preferences this is
hard to find even for me, who once already switched it. This both is a
usability problem, you should seriously address it.


In overall the improvements are visible and they looks usable, but to
judge that (like new organization of menus) I need to start working on
Pharo a bit.

Best regards
Janko
