[Newbies] Using squeak with a script?

[Jacques Harmand]

Thanks for your answers.
Alas ExternalCommandShell does not seem to work, the VM seems to wait
forever.
I also tried various other ways:
"OSProcess thisOSProcess stdOut nextPutAll: 'Hello world'."
"FileStream stdout nextPutAll: 'Hello world'."
"StandardFileStream stdout nextPutAll: 'Hello world'."
"TranscriptStream redirectToStdOut: true. Transcript show: 'Hello world'."
... but so far none of them seems to work.
I also tried "-headless" and "-vm-display-null", but again this does not
seem to help.
Any pointer would be appreciated!
