Project: GNU Smalltalk
Version: <none>
Component: Base classes
Category: bug reports
Priority: normal
Assigned to: Unassigned

For example... myVar inspect.
- Calling inspect from a system without gst-blox doesn't always work.
Sometimes it stack dumps.
- Calling inspect from a system with gst-blox will try to open a
graphical "inspect" window. Sometimes this window shows in the
operating system but no output appears in it and then after about 30
secs it disappears. Sometimes GST gets in a loop generating inspect
windows.
System documentation is...
inspect
Print all the instance variables of the receiver on the Transcript
This doesn't imply that an X Window will get opened.
The "inspect" method is useful for debugging and when using a class
that someone else has written to see what objects it returns. Please
remove the "Windowing link" so that if a script is _not_ running inside
gst-blox, then GST will dump output to Transcript and not try to open an
XWindow.
