Sorry for hijacking the thread, I just wanted to be sure I understood it
properly.
So now I think it's a kind of syntactical sugar for a nicer way of writing:
Array
with: (builder newButtonFor: self action: #onPrestamosClick label:
'Prestamos' help: '')
with: (builder newButtonFor: self action: #onMaterialesClick label:
'Materiales' help: '')
with: (builder newButtonFor: self action: #onSociosClick label:
'Socios' help: '')
Does that sound like a good explanation?
