I made the input hrompt use the CPC ROM line-editing code, that saves a lot of string allocations and also allows full cursor control, backspace, etc to work.<br>Reorganized the sources a bit so the imagebuilder is runnable from the main git branch, makind coordinated changes to the vm and image easier.<br>The bad news: my context recycling code doesn't work, I think.

Autist mit Menschismus

Kann dieses #Smalltalk bitte einfach abgeschafft werden?

"Schönes Wetter heute, wa?"
Klar. Die Sonne brennt senkrecht vom Himmel. Ich fühle mich, als stünde ich am Äquator direkt im Zenit.

"Na, auch im Rewe einkaufen?"
Ne, weißte, ich entspanne mich gerade in meiner Privatsauna.

Smalltalk-80: Bits of History

#retrocomputing #smalltalk

Slightly less shitty scan of the cover below.

The cover is really just awful. Like, I think less of Smalltalk (which I have professionally programmed in) because of this cover. The more I look the worse it gets.

GFA, made basically solo by Frank, went with all black & text, and it still looks awesome. This, made by a $1B+ corporation, tried to do graphics but couldn't hire a skilled chimp.

Also wondering: Are game dev environments where a lot smalltalk’s design ideas (as a development environment, not just the language) still thrive whereas most other things are plaintext + glorified editors? (other exception: Lazarus, but game dev is far more popular than object pascal)
