Hi Jecel,
Thanks for the reply. I have a Squeak/Seaside program that controls the GPIO pins. Pre raspbian stretch Squeak was present and I would install NuScratch to get some GPIO interface code. Now I install Squeak myself but I'm missing some GPIO stuff. I'm not sure what I have to load/install to get it. I didn't realize what scratch2 was but hoped it was the NuScratch stuff by a different name.
If Tim Rowledge is reading this, are you going to keep supporting your Squeak/Scratch code and if so do you know what I need to get the GPIO stuff working?
Lou

I tried: sudo apt-get install scratch2 that seems to find what it is looking for but I'm not sure it is what I should install and my code fails calling: GPIOAccessorPiGpio uniqueInstance with an externalCallFailed in PigpiodInterface.
Am I installing the right thing? Is something missing? With jessie, pigpio and NuScratch, everything worked.
Scratch 2 is a different program written in Flash. And Scratch 3 will be yet another program written in Javascript. But each version is supposed to be able to load projects created by earlier versions, so these changes shouldn't be too obvious to users. Unfortunately if you use extensions then the difference will be very visible to you.
Note that the Raspberry Pi foundation has decided to move to Scratch 3, so I would expect future versions of Raspbian to not include the Squeak based Scratch.
