From the main menu I go to changes | recently logged changes. This
produces a change list sorter.
When I selected all and filed in the changes, I got repeated errors at the boundaries, like this: Nothing more expected ->----SNAPSHOT----#(30 June 2001 10:35:55 pm) priorSource: 12882792
Am I misunderstanding how this is supposed to work, or is something broken?
3.1alpha #4173 image.
I'm running on Linux, although I think I was on Win32 when my image got damaged (I think only part of the file got saved, so I'm recovering from an older one).
P.S. squeak -memory gets more memory on Linux, at least my version of the VM (Debian).

Yes, it seems to do that. If you just want your method changes back, choose "remove doIts" from the menu. Or select the SNAPSHOT and STARTUP lines and remove them from the browser using the menu choice.
It probably could be considered to be broken.

But remove doIts takes out class definitions, doesn't it?
In general, it seems changelists have not got a lot of love and attention: * Multiple selection in the change list browser requires individual selection of each element--no range select. And if you try to slide the mouse too quickly, you miss items. * No select all above or below point. * Eliminate older versions has a conception of what is the same that is too broad (e.g., as I recall, it removed all doits, even though different classes were being created).
Is there some other tool or approach I should be trying when I need to recover my work?
Ideally I won't be needing it :).

Yes, this is a nuisance. I think we could have a special kind of change for lines beginning with "--", since they can't be legal Smalltalk.

All of these would be very nice. The first would be an easy tweak to the multiple selection list view and morph. The second could easily be added to ChangeList, though it doesn't seem as important if you have the first item. I don't know about the third, but it sounds straightforward once you've figured out what you are looking for.

No, this is the tool!

A while ago some people griped about ChangeList. I put what I have been using, an idea from a student, and some changes on my "stuff I want someday" together and stowed them at http://www.smOO.com/Smalltalk/SqueakGoodies/Tools-Changes.st Let me know if you find problems.
One of the student-inspired ideas was cleaning up some "chaff" so it might be best to replace existing category with new code or the chaff will remain.

3.1alpha #4173 image.
I'm running on Linux, although I think I was on Win32 when my image got damaged (I think only part of the file got saved, so I'm recovering from an older one).
P.S. squeak -memory gets more memory on Linux, at least my version of the VM (Debian).
