Hi all

What are the “Serivces” for?
Are they actually used?
When I open the “Service Browser” from the Apps
menu, all I get is a crippled Preference browser??

Should we keep or nuke?

Don't know about the Service Browser, but Services themselves are the
mechanism by which outside frameworks can extend the IDE functions
with additional menu entries.

Re: Services-*

Sure, the thing I wanted you to include in SS3, and which I intend to
put into trunk for access more-reliable and more robust access to
Squeak-based SqueakSource back-ends.

In reply to this post by Chris Muller-3

Are these in any way related to the services in FileList? Or is the Services talked about a completely new, independent thing?
