Hello.

I have some files that I created using the old syntax of GNU Smalltalk. With GNU Smalltalk 3.0.1, I can't easily edit those files anymore.

The new command, smalltalk-bang, doesn't seem to work with files using the old syntax.

A silly example:

!Object methodsFor: 'stuff'!

    "Newton method for swuare roots -- this is the iterating part."
    newtonIterate: n | newValue |
        newValue := 0.5 * (n + (self / n)).
        ( (n - newValue) abs < 0.00000001 )
            ifTrue:  [ ^newValue ]
            ifFalse: [ "newValue printNl." ^self newtonIterate: newValue ] !

    "Newton method for square roots."
    newton
        (self < 0)
            ifTrue:  [ self error: 'Negative numbers have no square root!' ]
            ifFalse: [ ^self newtonIterate: self ] !

If you try hitting ! several times, you will notice that
it will both produce the bang on the text and go,
sometimes to the end of the method, and sometimes somewhere inside a string (if there is a ! inside the string).

Thank you,
J.

PS: I assigned to component base classes because there is no "Emacs interactor" option...
