I've used GST in the past for simple scripting too. Worth a try!

Thanks but to me this doesn't sound like a good idea. Why? Because I like to have something that is easy to use. And I doubt that all things I like to use are available in GST. So while I basically like the idea I wouldn't even try. I have been burned enough in the past 20 years :)

I run server-side JavaScript but would not dream of using JS to do jobs !

Humour : for years the command-line params for VW Smalltalk were some kind of unpublished hush-hush secret for build mavens and image-stripping gurus on hp/ux servers.   Not so for Gnu Smalltalk ;-)

There is always APL ;-)

What are you using to do jobs on the commandline. I'm sick of doing bash and sed,perl,jq,... stuff. What would be the quickest start when using a normal image? And what if I want to give coral a start. Does it work in 3.0? Best place to load stuff from?

thanks,

Norbert
