Could you be please more specific and tell me why this implies somebody's clueless? Jan
I have not noticed Gravel and thank you for pointing this. I am interested on the fact that is not just the port of the language but also the IDE. I would love to hear more about it and maybe even give it a try. Can I do live coding with it as I do with Pharo ? How I can use it together with Pharo ?

I know your time is precious but still I would like to understand the above statement. I mean, why "Gravel aims to be fullyANSI Smalltalk <http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/172> compatible.â means the author is clueless. Thank you very much. Jan

Clueless is the wrong word: what I meant is that people will read it as âItâs ANSI Smalltalk, so it it Smalltalkâ. While you can make an Ansi Compatible system that clearly does not do what you think a Smalltalk should do (e.g. have become: or a thisContext). I am sure the authors know that, too. So clueless is the wrong term. Marcus
Thanks for explanation. Jan On 03/01/14 10:19, Marcus Denker wrote:
