Each method is prefixed with its class, so from my 100ft viewpoint it seems feasible to transport a whole package in one Tonel file. Why not using Fileout st files to transfer the code? > The same question might be asked why Iceberg didn't just use a Fileout at class level. The Tonel format is more readable, especially minus the scattering of exclamation marks. I also meant to ask, what methods are used to file-in a Tonel file ? Or more the point, what method process a string in Tonel format that has been downloaded from a website? Actually, hunting around a bit I found.... TonelParserTest >> testMethodDefList shows that... ((TonelParser on: tonelString readStream) perform: #methodDefList) returns an array of MCMethodDefinitions that respond to #load with... MCMethodDefinition >> load self actualClass compile: source classified: category withStamp: timeStamp notifying: nil And... TonelParserTest >> testTypeDef shows that ((TonelParser on: tonelString readStream) perform: #typeDef) returns a MCClassDefinition that also responds to #load with... MCClassDefinition >> load self createClass So as an experiment I deleted MCMockClassD, then in playground evaluated... tonelString := (ZnEasy get: ' https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pharo-project/pharo/development/src/MonticelloMocks/MCMockClassD.class.st') contents. parser := (TonelParser on: tonelString readStream). classDef := parser perform: #typeDef. methodDefs := parser perform: #methodDefList. classDef load. methodDefs do: [ :md | md load ]. and super cool... MCMockClassD>>one was restored. So is that the correct way to use it? cheers -ben
