Squeak just blew it again with its UTF glitch. I copied .pdf content into
a Windows notepad .txt file, saved it in ASCII format then ran a fairly
simple Squeak method on it and it walked back a UTF error. I have asked
the system email list about this and got no help - someone said learn UTF.
I need a programming language that works. I can't trust Squeak as it is
now even if I write my own front end on top of it. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
I think a Smalltalk/B for beginners ought to also have precision graphics
like Java examples instead of fuzzy Smalltalk graphics. It should also
have a browser causes focus on writing apps instead of tweaking the
system. Maybe allow reading but not saving into the system code - nothing
in there can't be handled in a user object if needed.
