Thanks, found it

    SmalltalkImage vmParameterAt:put:

Another question: I do not have the classes like

StarSqueakForestFire (empty reference here http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/5538)

in my most recent image

Squeak6.0alpha  #17206

I wonder where I can get them?

Or put the question differently: Where are the StarSqueak examples?
