Hi,
	I'm having 0 luck with this.  My problem seems to be that OmniWeb
doesn't
recognize the plugin.

I put 

-rwxr-xr-x  1 beoneel  staff  847239 May  5 01:47 NS-Squeak VM 3.0

in ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins

MISE finds it and seems to run it, though like it's on 'ludes, though a
300mhz iBook is
no longer the spiffiest of systems :-(

Omniweb doesn't find it, thus divined by looking under the plugins
choice
in the Preferences.. menu.

So I moved NS-Squeak VM 3.0 to /Library/Internet Plug-Ins.  Same result.

OTOH, OmniWeb doesn't find either the Quicktime, Shockwave, or iTools
plugin 
there either so I guess it's not a big suprise.

So, I then put NS-Squeak VM 3.0 in
~/Applications/OmniWeb.app/Contents/PlugIns
and tried it since that seems to be where OmniWeb plugins seem to 
live.  Still no luck.  I then renamed it to NS-SqueakVM3.0.plugin and
now
Omniweb finds it, but it unlike the other plugins listed as either
loaded or registered, the Squeak one is listed as invalid.

The versions for all of this are:

OmniWeb 4.0 release canidate 1
MacOS 10.0.2 Build 4p12.

Sorry  :-(

cheers

bruce
