[Pharo Trick: #0004] - Run code using a key command to speedup development
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Works in: Pharo3.0 Latest update: #30637 but should work in other 2.0/3.0 versions

If you have to run some code very often you typically have to evaluate it
from a workspace over and over again.
But to speed up you can assign a global keymapping which allows to run it with
a simple keyboard shortcut:
World
on: $a shift command
do: [ Object browse ].
Evaluate this once in a workspace. After that anytime you press SHIFT, the
command button (on Windows this is ALT) and A together the block gets evaluated
and your code runs easily.
Background:
===========
In Pharo there is a global morph called "World" representing the desktop.
One can assign a key combination to any morph including this world.
