Eliot,
Many years ago, I made the acquaintance of a fellow Smalltalker named Jon Hylands. We was working on and gave a demonstration of an autonomous underwater submarine that was written in Smalltalk then translated to assembly. He showed us the Smalltalk code and logic seemed pretty sophisticated and able to function similar to a RTOS.
Here's a link, on Smalltalk.org for some of his work (not sure that he's working on this anymore though): smalltalk.org-PICSmalltalk <http://www.smalltalk.org/versions/PICSmalltalk.html>
Indeed⦠that was amazing stuff. I never saw it live, but just from the pictures and descriptions this looked great. Marcus
