I was just taking a look at the FileMan package (https://github.com/mumez/FileMan) since I've heard it mentioned as having some improved file name handling. It looks like it would need a little mangling for Squeak 6 and it seems to have a difference in how "this string' asDirectoryEntry works that might be a problem.
Current trunk Squeak will return nil if one tries to do 'nonexistentfilename' asDirectoryEntry but FileMan will create an FmDirectoryEntry; so any code that anticipates nil meaning "the file wasn't there" will have issues.
Is anyone using this? Updating it?
