I'm starting to think this may be some sort of bug with the linux version. I get the impression that the Squeak developers were heavily tilted toward linux.
not really since we were a lot of squeakers moving to pharo and on mac.
OK, cool. That makes me feel a lot safer about my suspicions. So I'll keep doing what I can to learn, and contribute back if I actually get that far. Is there some sort of reference about why the fork was made? I'm sure there were a lot of politics (icck) involved), and pharo feels a lot more solid than squeak ever did, but I'm curious about the real reasons. The website's "we felt the project was moving in the wrong direction" just implies a lot without really saying anything. I don't want to dig skeletons out of the closet or bring up any old hard feelings. I'm just curious. Thank you, James
