Am I the only soul that misses the replace entry which I would expect to be near the 'find' and 'find again' entries?
We have even an entry 'set search string' but not a replace one! -- Cesar Rabak _______________________________________________ Pharo-project mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project |
Hi Cesar
I don't miss it. How does it work? I also wonder where you found the menu item 'set search string'? If there is enough interest from other people we can add the replace. But we should take care not to get long menus again. Thinking about it, I would remove 'find again (g)' from the context menu. Or does anybody use it from the menu, rather than with the keyboard shortcut?

When you select 'replace' instead of 'find' you get a window with _two_ entry fields one for the string you want to replace and another for the replacement (OK I concede I'm used to VW ;-) > I also wonder where you found the menu item 'set search string'? If you click the yellow button in the OB Package Browser in the source pane you'll find it (Pharo1.0rc1 Latest update: #10495). > If there is enough interest from other people we can add the > replace.

You made an interesting point: for experienced people (who already learned the keyboard shorcuts) probably the menus are less useful, but for newcomers or less frequent coders, the menus are the way to remember the functionality available. So I think if we want to remove too many items from the menus we have to put back a workspace filled with an introductory document which among other things has the list of keyboard shortcuts. Better even would be to have an updated quick reference card to render in PDF!

I am also agree to have them not only as a shortcut but as a menu entry. And yes!!!!!!!!! please add an entry to the menu with the shortcuts. I complained about that when this was done. And the answer were that that option was alone in the "help" section.
