Looking for Methods in Your Smalltalk Library to Make Frequent or Difficult Things Easy? 

One of the most successful video series we publish is the Hidden Gems Screencast, a series produced by Arden Thomas, the Cincom Smalltalk Product Manager. Arden created this series for developers who are passionate about their use of Cincom Smalltalk and want to learn more about its productivity and ease of use.

Have you ever found yourself wanting additional methods within your Smalltalk library to make frequent or difficult things easy?  This Hidden Gems discusses extending the String class with some utility methods to improve your code. It also examines some principles and goals to keep in mind that serve as good practices to those who are new to Smalltalk, and reminders for our experienced friends.

This is followed up by a bonus Hidden Gems for a String pattern matching utility that shows multiple means for simplifying the creation and execution of string pattern matching.
