gst-package

Hi,

when you launch gst-package without a parameter it raises an exception.
Here is a very small patch to change this behavior and display the help
message :)

Cheers,
Gwen

Hi,

I'm working an a new command for displaying packages inside a
repository. Basicly it will download a file (repository.xml) and parse
it so we have the list of packages inside a repository. The file will be
simple (<repository><package>name</package>...</repository>)

I would like to make some small changes to the pckloader.st create a new
namespace Package instead of Kernel ?? and split the one file in
multiple file (or directory). Do you agree or not :D ?

Gwen

Uhm, you want me to do that in PHP too for smalltalk.gnu.org... ;-)

Naming the namespace Package is a problem because you'd have a Package
class within a same-name namespace.  I agree that putting them in Kernel
is suboptimal.  For 3.2 I'd rather keep things as is, we have to start
the stabilization somewhere.

;)
So here is the first version of the patch :
  I've made a tiny XML parser (very very simple ^^), a new
PckRepositoryList command and a new class PackageRepository which stores
packages from a repository. Any comments, remarks  are welcomes

 I've found also a minor "bug" when I've bootstraped the image if there
are errors the compiler display nothing, may be an improvement for the
3.3 ;).
