This does not quite work. And also Abe-san says that I'd better make
it work with scim first so I am taking that path now.
BTW, I have a long standing question of the development process. I
create a VM by doing ./mvm, which creates display drivers and VM in
one way or another, and installs them to products directory somewhere
upthere. I have trouble seeing my changes to code gets reflected
sometimes. (Say, I change a printf message somehwere in sqUnixX11.c,
run mvm and invoke the squeak shell script in
products/cogspurlinuxhtARM/ but it seems to pick up a different binary
from somewhere else.
What do people do to make the debug cycle go faster on Linux?
