Smalltalk is the original object oriented programming language and environment from which most OSs have learnt about windowing, pixel displays, menus and so on. You will need to read about Smalltalk to make best use of it, since it is likely to be quite unfamiliar to you at first.

b) the menus make the choice when you _release_ the menu button over an item. So, press the menu button and hold it down whilst you make your choice.
c) as you will quickly notice, the Squeak windows can exist only within the single big RiscOS window. This may change later.
