[comp.lang.smalltalk] smalltalk on Sun

STORKEL@RICE.BITNET (Scott Storkel) (11/06/88)

Timothy Budd has written a book called "A Little Smalltalk" or something like
that. In the book he talks about implementing a version of Smalltalk using C.
The source for his version of Smalltalk was posted to the net a while back. I
couldn't get it to run and eventually ended up ftp-ing a working version from
cs.orst.edu. I'm not sure where on that machine to find the source anymore.

NOTE: This version of Smalltalk is NOT Smalltalk-80. It is designed to operate
in a tty environment and doesn't give you the nice bit-mapped graphics
environment that most Smalltalks do. You do however have the source code to the
language, so you can always add your own extensions to do bitblt-ing and other
stuff.

I am considering the purchase of a Sun 2/120 system (SunOS 3.2 [Berkeley 
4.2]) as a platform for running Smalltalk . Does anyone have information 
on Smalltalk implementations in the PD that would run on this machine?
