I asked a couple of weeks ago whether or not Smalltalk was available for the ST. It turns out that some people at a university in Germany have ported Smalltalk 80 to a 4meg ST. BUT... the software is not ready for release and will probably be expensive. Alternatives at this time include trying to run Smalltalk 80 on the Magic Sac and Smalltalk/V on the vaporous IBM emulator. I haven't tried it yet... Finally, Smalltalk/V seems to be the choice of many with IBM ATs but I don't expect Digitalk to bother implementing for the st when the more attractive market of Suns and Mac2s is completly open to them (to the best of my knowledge). ~r signe Jean-Pierre Corriveau Dept. of Computer Science University of Toronto, Toronto CANADA M5S 1A4 USENET: {utzoo,floyd,linus,decvax,ihnp4,allegra}!utcsri!utai!jpierre ARPA: jpierre%Toronto@CSNet-Relay BELL: 416-978-8725 CSNet: jpierre@ai.toronto.edu EAN: jpierre@ai.toronto.cdn UUCP: jpierre@utai.uucp
