Thanks. I read all your OB chapters/papers and they are very good. I
will continue using OB, nothing against Nautilus or Glamour, except
that as you already know I'm out of time for learning new ST
frameworks and tools. I agree, trees are a must.
Now, for OB supporters/maintainers (only Lukas?):

- Is that hard to add trees to the column panes without rewriting everything?
-- I replaced the "code pane" with an Explorer and ImageMorph in the
MagmaBrowser, the code is in SqS for almost 2 years, see
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxUaOFRHFPk it is not the same as
handling column interactions but it's a start. There is also a feature
to paginate very large lists that nobody cared to mention or even
steal.
-- IIRC O2 could manage trees at some point right?
- The same for multiple selections (I've implemented in the old Squeak
classic system browser), is the problem understanding OB or is too
difficult to modify or both?
- Anyone willing to collaborate or review the OB article I wrote can
contact me anytime.
