Thanks Paolo. So where/when/what version of ST should new syntax be used ?
3.x is supporting the new syntax. I don't think you want to use anything earlier than 3.1 (one feature for all: the filesystem classes were rewritten and are vastly more powerful as well as easier to use).
Is this a GST thing or a ST thing in general ? I don't recall seeing the old syntax in the "Smalltalk, Objects, and Design' book, but then it could be that I was not paying too much attention.
The old syntax is found in "Smalltalk: Bits of History, Words of Advice" (available at http://stephane.ducasse.free.fr/FreeBooks.html).
