As part of my curiosity about different languages sparked by Squeak, I've
been reading a lot about Eiffel, and wondered what you Squeakers thought
of it. It has real dynamic binding, but it doesn't seem like programming
it it would be any fun at all, the way Squeak of Scheme or MATLAB can be
fun. Eiffel reminds me of an overly stern schoolteacher.

Since this is a Squeak list, I don't want to clutter it up with Eiffel
discussion. Hence, if you want to sound off on the topic, please goto

And post your thoughts on the swiki page.

Lex has already posted some very good thoughts.

(I'm also curious what people think about SML and Objective-C...)
