Hi! Please could you help me understand smalltalk capabilities in metaprogramming? Q: could I construct arbitrary message by program? Create keywords from strings and than build sequence of them to make a message. Mm? Or may be store keywords in variables and then pass variables withing messages extracting stored keywords? Am I dreamer?)
