There are some trivial examples in the ChangeSet.  I don't

Only the Objc-Bridge is needed.  It implements the image side of the 
bridge.  The VM side of the bridge is a fixed part of the CocoaSqueak VM.

  Objective-C Tr. adds an option to generate the whole interpreter as an 
Objective-C class.  It even runs for a couple thousand bytecodes before 
crashing ;-)

CocoaSqueak.

Yes.  It worked for what I tried, and I haven't actually done much with 
it since.

Nope.

I think the main issue you will see is calling back into Squeak, 
although I am  now working on some simple mechanism for that.

Take care,
