Way to go! I feel as a library squeakvm is more portable to emerging platforms 
than as a standalone command line or X11 app. As a library, squeakvm can be 
easily integrated into desktop systems based on GTK+, Qt etc.

Another excellent idea that I would like to see merged into squeakvm trunk.

Perhaps a slight modification - instead of squeak.image.<n>, pick segments from 
a directory say, squeak.imd/<n>. This would allow large images to be carried 
around on (or transferred through) a traditional filesystems with 8.3 or per-
file size limits.
