<< I copied over the squeak image ( the original version that comes with
 squeak ) to a local directory. I start the vm using this image, and it
 complains that it cannot find the sources. I write my code and save
 an image. Each time I bring up the new image, it complains that it
 cannot find the source. How do I save an image so that on startup
 I don't get a complaint about the missing source? >>

Thaddeus :-

One requires four basic files to run Squeak. This are the (1) sources, (2) 
changes, (3) image, and (4) virtual machine. The sources file 
('SqueakV3.sources' for a ver.3 system) is typically kept in the same 
directory as the virtual machine. Normally this file is never updated (only 
when major version changes -- not usually updated by individual users). You 
need to get a copy of this file and put in the same directory as the virtual 
machine.

Full information is at the Squeak download page (http://squeak.org/download). 
If you are dealing with a ver.2 system, you need to do the corresponding 
thing with SqueakV2.sources file.

Good luck. Please holler again if this doesn't help you over the hurdle.

Jerry.
