It certainly is, but in the same style as Pocket Smalltalk
(http://www.pocketsmalltalk.com/) or Fly
(http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=949418&dl=ACM&coll=portal) where
the development image is separate from the execution image.
Little Smalltalk is an often forgotten reduced implementation
(http://www.smalltalk.org/versions/LittleSmalltalk.html) which is
almost self contained. You need an external editor or web browser.
Squat can work either way - with a remote development image or it can
grow (eventually) into a complete Squeak.
My own Neo Smalltalk project is also focused right now on a tiny but
self contained system. My benchmark for "tiny" is Chuck Moore's
ColorForth (http://www.colorforth.com).
Since Resilient includes things like TCP/IP stack that the others don't
but is missing the reflective and development tools, it is hard to
directly compare their sizes.
