I tried to generate one using the files provided at squeakvm.org, ran into some issues: - First run, lots of undefined errors in Interpreter. "Resolved" this by using sqVirtualMachine.c/h from \Cross\plugins\IA32ABI - Second run, quite a few of the VMMaker-generated methods using nil as a parameters in code generated by cCode: strings. Changed these to null. - Third run, error in ia32abicc.c, MEM_TOP_DOWN undeclared. And that's where I stopped for the evening, any pointer to things I'm doing wrong would be appreciated..

Well what I need is some windows user to build a windows VM, then install the Alien VMMaker additions, rebuild the VM and test to confirm it works or not. Without a such effort it won't happen

Yes but that someone is busy so if someone else would publish the code in the inbox the someone would be happy but thanks for the point.
I had worked on this a bit (Sophie clipboard, sophie quicktime graphics reader, macintosh navigation services) but.
(a) it requires FFI in the image, did we decide FFI and Alien should be in Pharo? I think that is an open question.
Is alien working on windows? May be we could have FFI and Alien
FFI in the process of making sure that alien will work everywhere. May be this is the best way to make sure that Alien will not make progress :)
