> In such cases, the emergency evaluator is not shown By the way, it is possible to invoke the emergency evaluator manually. You can invoke it with [Project tryEmergencyEvaluatorForRecovery: 'foo']. Marcel Taeumel also has a changeset that overrides MorphicProject>>#interruptSystem: to display
a cmd-dot menu with various options. I do not want to violate any copyrights, but I love this menu and use it every day :)
Best, Christoph

You are referring to that one here? :-) Best, Marcel

Exactly, thanks for the link :-)
Btw, if you're still searching for desired entries for this list: In my image, I added an entry to [Utilities closeAllDebuggers] which has rescued me so many times :)

It would be an extra gesture for the revert case, but that might make for a more-powerful Do menu entry than revertMostRecent. Best, Chris

I am unsure which variant would be better. If someone stumbles into the same situation I did, but never saw the emergency evaluator before (lucky them), they might not know that it can solve their problem. On the other hand they also might not know what RecentMessages is about... I would have liked to give this line a label, such as "Revert latest method change". That would be the directest way to communicate its use. The Utilities method would have been that revealing, but it is deprecated. Alternatively, one could put an item with a proper label under Extras or even Help. I know, this does not provide help literature, but it helps the panicking tool tinkerer. ;-) |
