Folks -
What if a Squeak VM file could recognize if an image file were simply appended to it, and do the right thing? Then it should take no more to make a double-clickable app than to do a save followed by a file copy.
OS gurus: Can this be done simply on the Mac PPC, 68K, Windows, Unix, OS/2, etc?
If we made this work, then I expect we would soon thereafter find all sorts of approaches to shrinking application images as well (SysDict>majorShrink is a start).
Just a thought.
