If I run "squeak $SQUEAK_IMAGE", it tries to start the Squeak UI, but I get an Information dialog that says "Squeak cannot locate the sources file named /Users.Mark/SqueakV39.sources". I copied the .sources file to my home directory and ran it again. This time the UI came up, but it doesn't respond to mouse clicks.</div><div><br></div>---</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: transparent;">Mark Volkmann</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: transparent;"><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></span></font></div></div></span><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"></span><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"> </div><br></div></body></html>
