remove unused variables

The editor used to inform when there was an unused local variable and offered to remove it.

Is it possible to get this behavior back, or is it a feature regression with the "new" (this changed some time ago) editor?

Thanks,

Peter

Re: [Pharo-users] remove unused variables

This was changed somewhere in November by Marcus and Miguel, and it was intentional, as part of the work on annotations on the AST that enabled breakpoints. (Breakpoints use the same highlighting mechanism).

Argh.

It is a very cool feature.

Are we going to have to spot around ?

No, please, no...

I'm not sure I understand your answer.

Was it removed just because some people prefer highlighting, or for some other issue?

I don't see how it relates to AST, does it somehow conflict with the behavior?
