I just received a copy of "SmallTalk by Example" because
I like learning from guided example. And, yes, it is
oriented toward VisualWorks 2.0 or 2.5.
I did a cursory look around SmallTalk sites but could find
no reasonable comparison of the different dialects of
SmallTalk.
For instance, what are the differences between Squeak, QKS
SmallTalk Agents, VisualWorks, Visual Age, and Dolphin
(to name just a few)?
How portable is code between them?
What are the criteria for choosing one over the other?
(One my criteria here is that it must run on a Mac.)
Can anyone point me to a good, thorough (even gritty)
comparison of the SmallTalks out there?
Thanks,
8-)
