Hi Gary,<br>
<br>
Thank you so much for your quick response. This is the answer I hoped
for!<br>
<br>
Without asking you to go into details, if, say, I wanted to reference a
Word or Excel file in my application (e.g. clicking on a button opens a
file chosen from a dropdown menu) would there be ways of doing this
cross-platform? I guess in this case the application would need to
know which platform it was running on....<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi, Tony!
It's trivial perhaps, but very significant: Squeak is profoundly
cross-platform, the beauty of the Virtual Machine concept. Your application
will neither know nor care whether it's running on a Mac, a PC, or any of the
many other Squeak platforms.
Happy Squeaking!

<pre wrap="">Hi everyone and Happy Holidays.
I am new to Squeak and almost new to Smalltalk. A quick question:
I am about to start a new project using Squeak for Windows. I need to
know the following (hopefully trivial): once it's ready for
distribution, will producing a version of the software to run on Apple
Macintoshes be quite easy? Can I do that from Windows or would it need
to be done on a Mac?
Thanks,
Tony.
