New issue 5733 by [hidden email]: Finder help text enhancements
http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=5733

For the whole time I've used Pharo the last 12 months I've had a  
misconception about Examples. I thought they must have been Example coded  
somewhere like GLMBasicExamples,  the MOEaselExamples and these somehow  
flagged for searching - and that I never got any results because of some  
lacking implementation.

I've just had my misconception corrected on the mail list (thx ben), so  
here then is some feedback on the Finder helpt text that shows in the  
bottom pane when no code is being displayed ...

1. Currently is says "for further informations, print 'FinderUI  
methodFinderExplanation' " but would be rather better if when [Examples] is  
selected, the bottom pane is filled with "print 'FinderUI  
methodFinderExplanation".

2. Currently it says "In these four modes, you can also tick the 'Use  
RegEx' checkbox." These is a carry over from when Pramgas were not an  
option and only the first three modes had RegEx.
It might noew be better saying "In the first four modes" and sort  
[Examples] to appear at the bottom of the selection list.

3. Currently it says 'Select classes' and 'All classes'
but the actual buttons are <Choose Packages> and <All packages>

4. Optional extra, while <Regexp> is enabled, put some help text for  
regular expressions with examples in the bottom pane.

Slice in the inbox

It:
- changes "Examples" by "Pattern",
- set the FinderUI methodFinderExplanation text when Pattern is selected
- refactorizes the code to have only on place where the symbols are defined  
to be able to change them with ease

Thanks for taking this up.

Example 3. 4. 7 in the search box works fine.

> Type a fragment of a selector in the top pane.
I can't get this to work.  I try typing "at" and clicking <Search> but  
nothing happens.  Perhaps I'm missing something.  In the explaination can  
you provide a working example of what to type into the Search Box. btw, how  
does this differ from searching Selectors ?

I had a few changes to the explaination to better suit a newcomer - but  
rather than try to describe them here I have just updated the slice.

In the pulldown box, perhaps Pattern --> Patterns, since the other items  
there are plural.
