Hi - i was playing around with some changes in a few packages to see if I can
make a contribution to PharoLauncher.
I want to version my spikes, in case I trash my image - but I’m not yet ready
to propose anything to commit yet. While I can version each of the dirty
packages - how can I group them to load them in one go? I thought maybe I could
make a quick personal slice - store it in my personal file disk repository and
then load it again if something goes wrong or I want to revert. However it
seems that to create a slice I need a Fogbugz number - which seems more like
I’m ready to contribute? Can’t I make a personal slice? Or is this where I have
to use Metacello?

I believe you currently can't make a personal slice, but I've also
thought it would be useful.
Now here is a tip to explore the system. Bring up the halos on the
"grab" but clicking three times until you get to the
PluggableButtonMorph, then click the "Debug" spanner icon and choose
"Inspect Morph" from the menu. Scroll through the instance variables
until you see something that looks like it indicates what happens when
the button is pushed. Various mechanisms are used and I don't remember
them between times I do this. In this case it looks like
'actionSelector' is sued, but I also see 'actionBlock' and I think
sometimes its something else. Put a halt in the called method, click
the button and trace through to see how it works. Modify to suit your
needs.
