That is what inisqueak is -- just type "inisqueak" and it will set up
your directory and run Squeak.  If the directory is already set up then
it simply runs Squeak, and does not overwrite your files.  Further, at
least one Unix distribution of Squeak puts inisqueak into the Gnome and
KDE menus; that menu item uses "inisqueak" as well.

I do wish that "inisqueak" was called "squeak" and that "squeak" was
called "squeakvm", however.  That way, newbies would guess the right
thing by default and have one less thing to worry about.  But, it is
hard to change now that so many people are using Squeak already.
