OK, here I am, the author of STDWIN.  (I wasn't reading these newsgroups
so wasn't aware of the announcement of Little Smalltalk on the net until
requests for STDWIN came flowing in.  Thanks to Hugh Smith of Nottingham
University for pointing this out to me.)

Maybe a more convenient to get STDWIN is from uunet.uu.net; it's in
subdirectory amiga-sources/stdwin (for no good reason) and slightly (only
very slightly) more up-to-date than the gatekeeper.src.dec.com version
mentioned in another reply to the above article.

BTW, I have fixed a few bugs both in Mac STDWIN and Little Smalltalk's
code; I will post fixes here as soon as I have sorted them out.

If you have ABSOLUTELY no way to get STDWIN via ftp, you can mail me.
Please mention your full name and a good mail reply path, and select
which version(s) you want.  I have:

(x11)		X11 (works with releases 2 and 3)
(mac)		Macintosh (LightspeedC 2.15 or 3.0, or MPW 2.0)
(atari)		Atari ST (Mark Williams C 2.1; OTHER COMPILERS REQUIRE WORK)
(termcap)	unix with termcap (not very useful; no graphics)
(msdos)		MS-DOS with ASCII display (same)
