Thanks for all the helpful information, gentlemen...

On Mac OS X Tiger, the equivalent of win32 executable (.exe) is .app,  
therefore the Squeak 3.8.6Beta6.app is the virtual machine.

Ok, I got the hang of it now... Now what are the .pr files for and  
how does one use them instead of .st files and .image files?

Do people pause / resume there work in Smalltalk loading the .pr  
files or the .image files or the .st files (it does seem that the .st  
files only contain one small source listing)....

Many, many thanks!

Kindest regards,

Unnsse
