It's an implementation of namespaces. In other languages, at the top of
your file, you'll often see things like...
#include <math.h>
or
require "Foo"
or
import x.y.z
Environments basically does that for Smalltalk. It's a way of breaking up
the global namespace into smaller namespaces which don't ordinarily need to
share state or behavior. I haven't used it yet myself though, so that's the
limit of what I know about it, and I may be wrong about the various details.
