5.2.1 The Source page

The browser provides a Source page for any object that has a definition in source code. For <reversi-square>, we can see the source code definition in board.dylan that created it.

The Source page shows the definition in a read-only source code pane. If we wanted to edit the definition, we could click the Edit Source () button above the source code pane. That would open an editor window on board.dylan, with the insertion point positioned at the start of the definition of <reversi-square>.

For objects that have a representation in the project sources, the Source page will always be the first page that you see when the browser displays the object for the first time.

We now move on to look at some of the other pages of information about <reversi-square>.
