Hola,
Andrei demoed it to me on friday and it is *extremely* cool. I can’t wait to start using
it for my next development session.
I have one request though (as I already mentioned to Andrei). Since you are using a
significant part of the screen, it would not be costly to (e.g. at the bottom) put a small
legend of the non-obvious keystroke combinations. It would greatly increase
discoverability of the features of the tool.
Considering the blog post, the legend would be ( I don’t understand the difference between
the last 2):
Cmd+Shift+ArrowUp/ArrowDown = Next/Prev category, Cmd+RightArrow = Dive into,
Cmd+Shift+RightArrow = ???

Hi,
Alex Syrel, Andrei Chis and I are happy to announce a new addition to the Glamorous
Toolkit:
GTSpotter, a novel interface for spotting objects.
GTSpotter has two goals:
- Provide a uniform yet moldable interface that can work on any object, and
- Handle searching through arbitrary levels of object nesting.
We think this will have a significant impact on the development workflow in Pharo.
Here is a couple of screenshots:

A trailer is available here:

A detailed description is available here:

It works already in Pharo 3.0 and can be played with by following the instructions from:

Please let us know what you think.
Enjoy,
The Glamorous Team
