font-family:Arial'>Hi, I am learning squeak and smalltalk. To do so, I am
constructing physics “applets” (similar to the java ones on the web).</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Does anyone know of a way to “call” methods
written in textual form from the user tile scripts?</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>For example, I would like to get the cosine of a number. The
number would be a variable from the user tile scripts. How can I do this?</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'> </span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Ultimately, I would like to extend a morph class, create a
instance of this class from my workspace, do some basic animation of this morph
with the user tile scripting , then call some of the methods that I wrote in
textual code from the same user tile script.</span></font></p>

code. </span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I would appreciate any information anyone on the board has
to share, links, files, etc…</span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>By the way, when constructing a physics applet the need always
arise for something like the Units framework that is being talked about on this
board.</span></font></p>
