Hi PhiHo,

See:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/squeak/message/47304
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/squeak/message/47305
http://www.metaobject.com/downloads/Squeak/CocoaSqueak-3.2.1.dmg
http://www.metaobject.com/downloads/Squeak/CocoaSqueak_3_2_1_sources.tgz

The first two links contain SqueakServer as a tool and as a Cocoa bundle.
The third contain the Squeak.framwork used by SqueakServer.
You can embed an image in the bundle Resouces and have a one bundle
distribuable server application.
The fourth is the source of the first.

Alain
