The problem is that ConMan isn't universally available. If your Smalltalk depends on having ConMan available it will reduce its utility. The ultimate console device has yet to be written. I've been thinking about doing something along those lines, but I really don't want to figure out all the details of writing a console handler myself. I know there are several out there... howcome none have been made publically available? > You seemed to suggest in your later posting that Smalltalk would be built > on a full-screen editing user interface. That wasn't me. Really, though, a Smalltalk UI should bear some relation to the *real* Smalltalk UI. -- Peter "Have you hugged your wolf today" da Silva <peter@sugar.hackercorp.com> `-_-' 'U` "I haven't lost my mind, it's backed up on tape somewhere"
