There is (at least) one smalltalk mode available from Elpa, the
Emacs package repository. In Emacs, do M-x list-packages and search
in that buffer (C-s) for "smalltalk".

You can download/install it from there.

(If those instructions are too terse, you're welcome to ask).

As to the mode itself, I can't say much, since I haven't tried it.
Perhaps someone more knwledgeable can chime in.
