<br>auto-completion, method tracing, type-inferring navigation, reduced<br>browser proliferation, and invertible-color brightness (e.g., white on<br>black). It's a good-looking and very productive development image.<br>
<br>I've not shared it, but I should. I've just uploaded it to my<br>personal page on the swiki.<br><br> <a href="http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/2989">http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/2989</a><br><br>Good luck.<br><br>

<br>> test, I tried to rename the stop method of the WAKom class? I get an error<br>> message to the effect of "doesNotUnderstand #getArgumentPermutation". Is<br>> there some other image I should use? I am running windows for development. I
<br>> am open to using another, free VM instead of Squeak, if it works better out<br>> of the box. I need a rich class and method browser, refactoring, debugging,<br>> syntax highlighting and preferably code completion. I don't mind installing
<br>> "packages" to the image either.<br>><br>> 2. Are there any examples of Seaside (or another, similar smalltalk based<br>> server) running heavy-load sites? What is the largest (in terms of load)
<br>> site and what sort of traffic does it receive (or alexa rating if<br>> available)? Is it trivial to set up? Part of this exercise is to determine<br>> whether moving to Smalltalk is a viable solution performance-wise as opposed
<br>> to moving to java as is currently being planned by my employer.<br>><br>> 3. I absolutely need to have good source control that will work for, say,<br>> two dozen developers working on one project. Is there some thing nice that
<br>> works with #1 above?<br>><br>> 4. Is there any educational material I just "have to" devour? A video?<br>> Tutorial or pdf? A classic text?<br>><br>> Thank you, all. I am really exciting to begin this journey, and I hoping to
<br>> get a head start from your collective wisdom.<br>><br>> Best wishes,<br>> Jared<br>><br>> ps. I realize 1 and 3 are somewhat off topic, but, since I thought there<br>> might be a "turnkey" (hate that word ;)) solution, I thought it'd be ok to
