Geert, I am currently working on a browser-based IDE for Pharo and GemStone (should work in any other dialect that supports Seaside ... with a little effort). It is called 'tODE -the Object (centric) Development Environment'. I expect to eventually replace the OmniBrowser-based Gemtools with tODE ... You can get a picture of what tODE looks like (in Chrome) attached to the email message[1]. I am using Seaside mainly to generate the javascript and provide the necessary callback infrastructure ... I am not trying to duplicate the window-based development environment we are all familiar with. In a web-browser, it is not natural to be opening and closing tens of windows, so I have taken a very different tack ... all of the action for tODE takes place in a single web-browser tab ... tODE has it's own navigation scheme (Smalltalk expressions), links and tabs ... I'm getting relatively close to the point where I can produce a video showing tODE in action...
