There is also `sport', by Bruce Badger:
Sport provides a consistent interface to things which are implemented
differently in most Smalltalk dialects. Sport provides wrappers for
Exceptions, Times & Dates, Files, Sockets and more.
So far, Sport is implemented in VisualWorks, Gemstone, Squeak, Visual
Age for Smalltalk and Dolphin Smalltalk X6.
I recall reading (on Usenet?) of an effort to port sport to Ambrai
Smalltalk.
I tried the Squeak version a while ago, but didn't get it to load cleanly.
(I forgot which versions.)
