  Hi Stef,

 Thanks for looking into this. I think these kind of discussions are important. 
yes this is why I send it. I will try to allocate some time to play with glamour. I was
looking at GMSTBrowser or something like that too
but just browsing

 The goal of this notation was to keep the language as simple as possible, but in this
case it would indeed be better to have a different selector for the composite.

 I do not like rowNamed: / columnNamed: because they are just too long. I will introduce a
compositeRow: and compositeColumn: for the composite ones, and keep row: / column: for the
single ones. As a transitory phase, we will still be able to send a block to row:/column:
for a while. 
ok
Everything that make glamour spec more smalltalkish and less block oriented is good to me.
:)

 Cheers,
 Doru

to moose-dev since other people use it and I would like to get more feedback on glamour.

 browser
 row: [ :r | r column: #namespaces; column: #classes; column: #methods ];
 row: #details.

 I do not like that row: is used to declare columns and at the same time with a name 
 to the row:

 why this is not 

 	rowNamed: #details

 then why 

 browser
 	row: (Column with: {#namespaces classes methods)
