I long thought that "class >> selector" was a contraction of
"class > protocol > selector" (protocol was the term used
for method category in the original Smalltalk-80 browsers). But
that may be just my imagination.<br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>wow, cool idea!!

For many years there were no methods for the selector #'>>',
but eventually some dialects added a method for it, as Hernán
indicated.<br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Allen Wirfs-Brook always mentioned the need for a Smalltalk syntax to interchange code, etc. (he used another word that I do not remember) and I think he tried to push it with the ansi standard...
