[comp.lang.smalltalk] Beginner's question about Smalltalk

fil@hammer.me.toronto.edu () (01/11/89)

	I'm doing my Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering at the University of
Toronto, and I think my thesis will involve heavy use of ai principles.  To
that end, I have some rudimentary comments regarding smalltalk.  Remember,
though, that I have no prior knowledge of smalltalk. :-)

	The simplest question is: can someone mail me some brief
documentation about the use of smalltalk (perhaps a paper or something) or
at least a reference or two?  Also, I hear so much about smalltalk that I'm
getting interested in having it on our system, regardless of whether I use
it for my thesis.  Where's the logical place to go to get smalltalk?  I
would be specifically looking for it on Suns, MIPS boxes and IRIS's.  Any
hints or names to mail to in this regardwould be greatly appreciated.
