We have been experiencing issues with empty mcz versions recently. Will this make that problem more invisible? On Sun, Nov 30, 2014 at 1:52 PM, <commits(a)source.squeak.org> wrote: > David T.

The Smalltalk Reflections podcast, episode one: a tribute to James Robertson
by Craig Latta 30 Nov '14

30 Nov '14

Hi all-- We did it! Today, on James Robertson’s birthday, David Buck and I have released episode one of “Smalltalk Reflections”, a podcast about Smalltalk. Our first episode is a tribute to James, who started the previous incarnation of the show. It’s hosted by David and myself, and features remembrances from several friends and co-workers, as well as a few choice words from the man himself. I edited it, and wrote the theme music. Enjoy! http://smalltalkreflections.blogspot.ca -C -- Craig Latta netjam.org +31 6 2757 7177 (SMS ok) + 1 415 287 3547 (no SMS)

4.5 compiler documentation
by Trygve Reenskaug 28 Nov '14

28 Nov '14

I've hacked the Squeak 3.10.2 compiler to add some special variables and method calls. For some unknown reason, it works as intended. The 4.5 compiler is clearly different, and my hacks do not work. Is there any documentation for the 4.5 compiler that could help me? --Trygve
