The structure is built up by letting every Morph subclass contribute elements simply by implementing method #helpContributions. Consult implementors of #helpContributions for examples of how this goes.

	acceptableScriptNameFrom:forScriptCurrentlyNamed:asScriptNameIn:world: Produce an acceptable script name, derived from the current name, for aPlayer. This method will always return a valid script name that will be suitable for use in the given situation, though you might not like its beauty sometimes.
	acceptableSlotNameFrom:forSlotCurrentlyNamed:asSlotNameIn:world: Produce an acceptable slot name, derived from the current name, for aPlayer. This method will always return a valid slot name that will be suitable for use in the given situation, though you might not like its beauty sometimes.
	doesOperatorWantArrows:
	systemSlotNamesOfType: Answer the type of the slot name, or nil if not found.

	utilities	top
	allClassVarNamesInSystem Compute and answer a set of all the class variable names known to the sytem from any class
	allKnownClassVariableNames Answer a set of all the knwon class variable names in the system. This normally retrieves them from a cache, and at present there is no organized mechanism for invalidating the cache. The idea is to avoid, in the References scheme, names that may create a conflict
	arithmeticalOperatorsAndHelpStrings Answer an array consisting of lists of the standard arithmetical operator tiles and of the corresponding balloon help for them
	cleanupsForRelease Miscellaneous space cleanups to do before a release.
	customizeForEToyUsers: If aBoolean is true, set things up for etoy users. If it's false, unset some of those things. Some things are set when switching into etoy mode but not reversed when switching out of etoy mode
	helpStringForOperator: Answer the help string associated with the given operator
	holderWithAlphabet Answer a fully instantiated Holder that has submorphs that represent the letters of the uppercase alphabet, with each one having an 'index' slot which bears the letter's index in the alphabet -- 1 for A, 2 for B, etc. A few special characters are provided as per ack request 10/00; for these the index provided is rather arbitrarily assigned
	informScriptingUser: This provides a hook for logging messages that the user or the developer may wish to see; at present it simply logs the message to the Transcript, with a standard prefix to signal their provenance. Such messages will fall on the floor if there is no Transcript window open
	newScriptingSpace Answer a complete scripting space - raa 19 sept 2000 - experiment for Alan, a variant *not* in a window, now adopted as the only true scripting space
	newScriptingSpace2 Answer a complete scripting space
	numericComparitorsAndHelpStrings Answer an array whose first element is the list of comparitors, and whose second element is a list of the corresponding help strings
	prepareForExternalReleaseNamed: ScriptingSystem prepareForExternalReleaseNamed: '2.2Beta'
	reclaimSpace Reclaim space from the scripting system, and report the result in an informer
	referenceAt: Answer the object referred to by aSymbol in the 'References' scheme of things, or nil if none
	referenceAt:put: Store a reference to anObject at the given symbol in the References directory
	reinvigorateThumbnailsInViewerFlapTabs It has happened that the thumbnail in a viewer flap tab will go solid gray because it got associated with some passing and disused player temporarily created during the initial painting process. This method takes a sledge hammer to repair such thumbnails. At its genesis, this method is called only from the postscript of its defining fileout.
	resetAllScriptingReferences Clear out all the elements in the References directory
	resetStaleScriptingReferences Remove all scripting references that are no longer needed
	setterSelectorForGetter: Answer the setter selector corresponding to a given getter
	spaceReclaimed Reclaim space from the EToy system, and return the number of bytes reclaimed
	standardEventStati

	wordingForAssignmentSuffix:
	wordingForOperator: Answer the wording to be seen by the user for the given operator symbol/string
