Hi Stefano,

I think that your understanding is correct. SqueakJS stores files
in an internal database, so the Scratch files that you saved do not
appear directly on your PC.

I do not know if it possible to copy those files to the file system
on your PC, but hopefully someone on the squeak-dev mailing list will
have an answer.

Thanks for asking,
Dave

So, I guess projects are just saved in an internal SqueakJS DB? If it is so, this makes unfortunately ScratchJS useless for my purposes. And I have no sufficient javascript/smalltalk knowledge to try myself to change this behaviour (that I guess would possible in principle, as a lot of JS apps allow to save file locally).
