It works well for me on my Windoze box.  If you have little endian machine,
you can't run the Simulator without Tim's patch, period.

There is a 'mini' image that suit this purpose well (especially for slow
Windoze machine like mine).  It has been referenced by Dan Ingalls in
previous post.  The mini image can be downloaded from:

        ftp://st.cs.uiuc.edu/pub/Smalltalk/Squeak/SmallSqueaksForPDAs/MiniSq
ueak2.2/

In order to see immediate action, try:

        (InterpreterSimulator new openOn: 'mini.image') test

and of course, if you are using little endian machine (and after file-in
Tim's patch), you need to substitute InterpreterSimulator in the above with
InterpreterSimulatorLSB.

Good luck and enjoy
