Actually, yeah, something like 500-700 KB more. The major-shrunk image my
changeset produces has something like 100 obsolete classes in it, that are
referenced from methods in base classes.

Yeah. Its actually part of my headless image stripper, but it can be put
pretty much anywhere.

I've also got a first cut of a simple command-line interface that works
over the serial port. I have tested it and it seems to work okay.
Basically, you connect two computers with a null-modem cable, run a
terminal program on one, and Sqeuak (either headless or headful) on the
other.

Once you start the listener in Squeak, you get a prompt on the terminal
program on the second computer, and you can type in Smalltalk expressions
and see the results.

The general point of that piece is to see that a headless image is running
and responding to user input -- I'm going to have it running on my Axis
image so I can see that the VM port is actually working.

Later,
Jon
