File class error mesage

When I try the following with Dolphin 3.0 I get a doesNotUnderstand
isReadable error:

fStread := FileStream on: 'c:\autoexec.bat'.

Is this a bug in the class?

No. The argument should be an instance of the File class and not a String.

You probably want

fStread := FileStream read: 'c:\autoexec.bat'.
