Remember opened images in Pharo.app on crash?

Uko2
Hi.

Is it possible to remember the opened images (files) in the Pharo app?

My use case is that I open an image and then I work in it, and I do something. And then I attend a talk, and download another image and try something out. And then I have to do a demo (in a fresh image). And then it turns out that I have some bug in my project, so I download a new image and fix it. And them I’m working on a new feature. And when I finish with a new feature I recall that I have this first image with a nice idea, and I go back to it and work a bit more, and it looks good, and then my mac crashes.

All images are gone, Epicea does good job on recovering lost changes, but I don’t know in which image it was… I started to think that other Mac apps open all the files/whatever in the state you left them. Would it be hard to make Pharo.app to memorize the opened images and launch them after crash?

You could use PharoLauncher and try to enforce you to label you images
with meaningful names.
But I have the same problems like you from time to time. Having tons
of images and I don't remember where is the code or the fixes I have
develop a few days ago ;-)
