I've placed a recorded demo of creating a car and string wheel and then hooking them up at:
http://www.advantive.com/squeak/car.tape
Instructions:
1. Get a fully updated standard Squeak 2.5 image 2. Start it (don't resize anything). 3. Create and Enter a Morphic project 4. Open an EventRecorderMorph and position it precisely in the top left corner of the screen (aligning the pixels with the top left) 5. Select "readTape" and enter your downloaded copy of the above file 6. Select "play" and watch
Note, the EventRecorder is very sensitive to the positions of things. Also, if you system runs more slowly than mine, it might not work properly.

This is FANTASTIC -- thanks for taking the time to create it! As others have already suggested, tapes would be a GREAT way to introduce and demo Morphic (and other parts of the system unique to Squeak). Recording is probably much faster and more fun than writing intro documents. I would really apprecaite a collection of recordings of 'cool' squeak features to learn from -- I'm learning a lot from them!
