A First Look at Self

Tainted by two decades of Smalltalk use.

Gosh it's ugly! The old bitmapped fonts and the unelegant morphs do not adjust well to a contemporary world of aliased true fonts, and vectorial graphics.

Spent more time over the last two days to restore from backup after a VM crash than doing anything in the environment...and restoring is just renaming a file...

There is also this bad case of reverse camel. In retrospect, considering that it was supposed just to save a few brackets, it looks like one of those bad design decisions that you end up living your life with.

Ok, add to the shopping list: true type fonts and vectorial graphics. Also mod the compiler, check with DMP, and remove these offending camel warts. May have to wait a little while for this.

The Name is not internet friendly. Real pain for searches. But great for puns.
