I'm proposing a change to sq.h such that

/* image file and VM path names */

extern char imageName[]

becomes

char *imageName(void);

The VM supplies an image name to the image open logic. This image name  
comes from the VM support routines once they decide what it should be  
as part of the startup process, or later when you do a save or save as  
operation.

Having a function return a pointer to the characters as a result of  
calculations that determine issues like character encoding is 'better'  
than referring to an MacRoman ASCII byte string. This allows the os-x  
version to translate a unicode path name to the desired mapping when  
needed, since that mapping
might change under Smalltalk application control.

Yes, there will need to be a change set with this at some point to  
alter Interp.c to generate imageName() versus imageName
