[Cuis-dev] FileOutRework and personal introduction.

[Mauro Rizzi]

Hello Hilaire,

The FileOutRework package doesn't contain that code.

Were you by any chance looking at the FileOutUtility repository?

I used the FileOutUtility class to make a model of how fileOut should
behave normally, the fileOut rework replaces that class and package
entirely.

If you look at the FileOutUtility.pk.st file you'll see in the last line I
inserted the line:
     *Smalltalk at: #FileOutHelper put: FileOutUtility new!*

The package manager will happily run any correctly formatted collaborations
you add to the end of a file. This was mostly a hack to be able to share
the class quickly with classmates since the FileOutUtility implementation
required a global instance of FileOutUtility called FileOutHelper to
function.

If you installed that package in your image you should remove it and use
the FileOutRework package that directly modifies system class and objects
and avoids that entirely.

You can remove the FileOutHelper global object from your Smalltalk
directory by printing:
    *  Smalltalk removeKey: FileOutHelper*
In any workplace.

I will be removing the reference to the FileOutUtility repo from the
repository description and readme to avoid this.

If, on the other hand, you found a reference to FileOutHelper on the
FileOutRework.pk.st package please let me know where so I can look into it
since it shouldn't exist.

Thanks for taking the time to check it out!.

*Mauro Rizzi*
