Help me!
I open the system browser, but every time I try to choose a method a debugger comes up that says "Message not understood: isSeparator". It seems to be trying to call this method on UndefinedObject, which suggests something is nil when it shouldn't be.

Re: Help me!
mmm... is this a mod your making? My best answer is that you re-download the .image from scratch. 
If it is a mod maybe you could grab all the blockspec and code and put it onto your new image.
Thats all I can really tell you.

Re: Help me!
I can't grab the block specs, because when I try to go to them, the above happens.

Re: Help me!
What i'm thinking is that you probably messed around with the Browser class.
A possible (though untested) solution could be that you:
- re-download the source code
- open up the new one
- file out the whole browser class into a changes file
- open your mod
- file in the whole changes file
that should, in theory, replace the browser class with the correct version!

I've had this problem before, and I think it comes up when you don't have the SqueakV2.sources file with your image but do have the changes file.

yea, but you can just ignore it when it says "Squeak can't find the SqueakV2.source file [...]"

Re: Help me!
I've traced the problem to StandardFileStream primAtEnd:. It doesn't seem to report true when it should.

Yes. It didn't work. I gave up and started over.
