Ok now if you want people to use it provide a loader that loads everything. Because so far I could not make it work. Because extra packages are missin. Stef On Sep 27, 2009, at 2:12 PM, Hernán Morales Durand wrote:
That's one idea. Although there are many applications. I'm using it now to test a translator from Smalltalk to PQF (an insane query language), but the course of acquisition of a natural language is a very complex process, so a linguist can write a translator which display dynamically inflectional systems differences between English and Greek or Chinese, or a WordNet application which suggest synonyms to a writer as he writes, or a logician which desires to show his students calculus applied to a "lingua characteristica", i.e. it is not limited to computer or constructed languages. Use your imagination :)
For the Smalltalk to Java part, I've just included a translator available in the SqueakSource repository, I'm not so concerned about the correcteness of a translator but if the author wants to include a warning before usage of his tool I will happily include it.
One motivation for STicky were the arguments of some Java developers I know, they told me they've felt lost inside Smalltalk (they've never seen a Programming System as an autonomic system with global behavior, etc. but as a process which deals with dead text code) and since language is a means for referring objects rather than the object itself, this tool can show the referent sources of their language, if a translator exists of course.

But for beginner what is the difference between that and a Smalltalk interpreter. The idea is that they can compare with their own language the smalltalk syntax? it could work now when trnaslating to Java you can generate really bad code to express smalltalk syntax?
