I received this comment from someone who complained:
*What about the lack of documentation? From time to time Iâve checked some SmallTalk implementations like Squeak, GNU-Smalltalk and now Pharo. Of these, only GNU-SmallTalk appears to have a free, official programming guide and core library reference that any serious programmer expects from a language.
https://www.gnu.org/software/smalltalk/manual-base/html_node/*
I pointed to Pharo's documentation but then he came back with:
*Then show me a link of the free, maintained reference documentation for the classes that form âthe core libraryâ, like this one for Python (https://docs.python.org/3/library/index.html)*
It's true, most Smalltalks do not have a core library reference, not even VisualWorks! So what is the proper response to this complaint?
Thanks.
