Re: using collect on a ReadStream

Hi Norbert,

Streams don't support the collection protocols.  You can convert a  
stream to a collection by sending #contents to the stream:

stream := (ReadStream on: #( #(#a #b) #(#b #c))).
stream contents collect: [:each| 'k',each first] --> #('ka' 'kb')

Is that what you want?

Cheers, Oscar
