You can use any class method to create an instance of yout class. For
examples have a look in the system browser Graphics-Display Objects |
Cursor class | instance creation | new" which overrides the new method.
I learned this from Adele Goldberg, "Smalltalk-80 The Language", most of
this 1989 book is still valid in Squeak.

hope this helps,
