Hello
a third issue today about customizing Squeak. The world menu has a title and this is given in
Preferences desktopMenuTitle
This is called in
PasteUpMorph openWorldMenu
However the source code in #desktopMenuTitle is from the year 2000 and it says
desktopMenuTitle "Answer the title to be used for the 'meta menu'. For now, you can hard-code this, later someone should make this be a parameter the user can easily change. sw 9/6/2000"
^ 'World' "This is what it has always been"
"^ 'Desktop' ^ 'Squeak' ^ 'Mike''s Control Panel'"
How could a solution look like to make it possible for a user to easily change this parameter on a per project or per project type bases?
Regards

One solution is to have some notes in the help system about customizing Squeak. In this case the user would need to be told to alter the method
For example to set it to something like
Preferences desktopMenuTitle "Answer the title to be used for the 'meta menu'. ^ 'Project: ', Project current name
