this sounds as if gnu-smalltalk slowly but surely becomes a real-world
alternative to the "mainstream". as an absolute newcomer, i cannot really
say if this is a praise or an insult, although i hope it isn't the latter.
what i would like to have is a curses based, or even text-only class
browser, because i don't really like the GUI stuff. will 2.0 have such a
simple browser? or, what's the reason to make it so complicated, using
Tk/Tcl at the very least?
