Although this was classified as a beginner question and answered, I'll
note that InterpeterSupportCode writeSupportFiles no longer works with
current image or likely in any image made in the last 5 years or so,
perhaps even longer.
The process to load the VM code starts with http://www.squeaksource.com/VMMaker.html
and the SVN directory at http://www.squeakvm.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi
Also see platform api thoughts at http://isqueak.org/PlatformVMAPI
Lastly if you were desperate and *really* wanted to see where the
fopen happened then it's at
http://www.squeakvm.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/trunk/platforms/Cross/plugins/FilePlugin/sqFilePluginBasicPrims.c?rev=1930&view=auto
