Hi Russel,
some time ago I ported Little Smalltalk to the pre-MIDlet small devices
platform (Palm, WinCE, Symbian, [windoze dev, linux dev])
- http://www.superwaba.org/install/
Funny, I also replaced object serialisation by custom image serialisation,
like you did ;-)
Attached are the files for running it (except on WinCE and Symbian, I
guess).
It starts up a workspace with editable examples for doIt/printIt and also
a class browser (IIRC with buggy #compile).
Enjoy [the world of Smalltalk] !
/Klaus
P.S. also added file Upgrade0.9.ls which contains a handful of bug fixes,
formerly missing methods and enhancements for object trace and
fileOut/fileIn which might be useful cross platform (plus some performance
enhancements for users of very small devices :)
