Hello Eliot,

I have not found it in my system (I use the Squeak vm from the Debian
Unstable repository).
I've downloaded the Squeak vm for Linux from the official site and
even have not found this plugin in that archive.

Where I can obtain it for the i686 GNU/Linux system (or for Windows as
a last resort)?
Building from the source is also accepted.

Best regards,
Dmitry
