[Cuis-dev] Hello, new Cuis smalltalk user here!

If you highlight the message you don't understand, right click and then
select 'implementors of it' you'll see a list of every implementation of
the method in the image (including a couple that have good comments
explaining what it does.)  This will work for any message in that
expression (to:, collect: (which was missing the colon), asciiValue, -, +,
\\, asCharacter)  You can also pull apart the expression and see what the
different parts of it do such as ($A to: $Z), $A asciiValue etc. by
copy/pasting them into a Workspace and printIt (either via the context menu
or keyboard shortcut)
