Tim Budd is the author of "A Little Smalltalk" and the program.  I
spoke with him a few days ago and he says that before the he goes back
home he will have a new version that is smaller and will have a few
added features. It will not have a pretty graphics enviornment.

When he finishes it I will see if I can put it up on the ST.
