Time Methods

The methods Time>>subtractTime: and Time>>asSeconds went away.

Do equivalent methods exist by other names?

1) -

2) second (shouldn't that be seconds?)

No, in the Squeak terse guide that I ported, it's #asSeconds and Cuis has no method by that
name. I'd like to know if there is an equivalent. If not, I'll just remove references to it from the
terse guide.

Cuis has
#second
#seconds:
seconds:nanoSeconds:

none of these seem equivalent AFAIKT. The last two are private.

Ah, now I understand your point about "seconds" and plural does seem better for the method
name, but at least it's consistent with "hour, minute, and nanoSecond".

It seems to behave differently from #asSeconds on Squeak tho.

You are correct... that's not an equivalent. It appears to just be
returning the seconds component of the time. My mistake.
