I suppose this has already been debated, but I just returned to the net
after a 4 year absence, so I missed all the discussion. Please post
replies directly to me.
I am beginning prototype development of Z39, a new standard for
information retrieval, and pieces of it will reside on pcs, Macs, and
UNIX. Is Smalltalk-80 really the only choice? I have been using
Smalltalk/V for a few months and like it, but am not sure if it runs on
UNIX machines.
As a separate question, does anyone have any experience with Smalltalk
training classes? this would be to help mainframe programmers get over
the shock....I am not looking for those dopey Buzzword Seminars for
Managers Who Want To Learn Some New Phrases, but real hands-on stuff to
get people going.
As usual, I will summarize to the net if sufficient stuff comes my way.
thanks,
Andy Cohill
