Unfortunately no instructions. I might be able to encourage my son, and a friend to create something, they both need the exercise in written literacy.

That would help, thanks!

Ideally, one needs to be able to use repeats and condidtionals in the program one creates to direct Karel.

True. Conditionals are a "simple matter of programming" (I think).

However, eToys don't support repeats other than by starting and stopping a ticking script. Which might work, now that I think about it.

The various tests would actually be quite simple to add in Smalltalk, but I wanted to show what could be done with scripting.

I remember Alan posted a lesson on the subject to the list during February. The text of the posting is in the Squeakland email list archive, but unfortunately the inline images have been stripped out by the list archiving software. Thus the archived posting is meaningless. I would be very grateful to be able to read that posting complete with its pictures. Could somebody be so kind as to direct me to another instance of the posting complete with the images elsewhere?

Hmm.. I see the inline images at (for instance): http://squeakland.org/pipermail/squeakland/2003-02/msg00026.html
