Hi


I will implement the following because this is too annoying.

currently

'tmp/foo.txt' asFileReference
 >
File @ tmp/foo.txt

and it would be much much better to get back
'tmp/foo.txt' asFileReference

So that we can get
{ 'tmp/foo.txt' asFileReference }
 > { 'tmp/foo.txt' asFileReference }

and not
  "an Array(File @ tmp/foo.txt)"


In addition we should turn the current printOn: method into a
displayString method so that
a list of fileReference can be well display with File @ tmp/foo.txt for
example
