How do I change the font size that BLOX uses to something larger???

What is "The Smalltalk for those who can type" supposed to mean?

Hi!

One of the reasons that I'm using Perl is CPAN. Is there something like what in SmallTalk? Can we find or download extra modules (or classes) easily?

Thanks.

Hi there

I have read and re-read every piece of documentation I can lay my hands on, and just can not get gst to start a GUI based browser. It seems to me that your docs are hopelessly outdated. I must say I am very disappointed that a language as simple and beautiful as Smalltalk has been so completely obfuscated in this implementation. I have been programming in Smalltalk for 20 years, and have developed GTK apps for 5 in C, and I can't get the GUI to come up. No wonder people don't want to use Smalltalk !

Sigh

I wish I could get syntax similar to the "how does smalltalk look like" section to work, but I get:

stdin:1: parse error, expected '!'

The snippet in question is:

   Object subclass: Person [
       | name age |
       Person class >> name: aString age: anInteger [
           ^self new name: aString; age: anInteger; yourself
       ]
   
       name [ ^name ]
       name: aString [ name := aString ]
       age [ ^age ]
       age: anInteger [ age := anInteger ]
   
       printOn: aStream [
           aStream << ('%1 (%2)' % {name. age})
       ]
   ]

thanks.
