- This is Little Smalltalk version 3 for an IBM PC.
-
- The source is by Tim Budd. The document reformatting and makefile
- hacking is by Daniel Simmons. The executables were compiled with
- Borland C++. I took the source code distribution straight from cs.orst.edu,
- sent the two documentation files through nroff -a -ms > *.txt, loaded the
- text files into Wordperfect and edited them to print nicely on my Oki 390,
- hacked the makefile (assumes borland c++ is in the directory c:\cpp, and
- turbo c ver. 2.0 is in c:\turboc), and compiled the things.
-
- Everywhere that I modified a file, the old file is present as well with the
- same name and the extension ".old" (That includes this readme file.) I
- seem to have lost the original documentation files, and I'm too lazy to go
- ftp them again. But, everything else should be complete.
-
- To make the source yourself with Borland C++, switch into the directory:
- ~\src and type "make bc++" Alternatively, you can type "make ibmturboc" if
- you have Turbo C ver. 2.0 or something like that. If you really want this
- to work on some other system, you probably have to edit the files. I would
- recommend getting the stuff straight from the horses mouth at Oregon State.
- (ftp cs.orst.edu, directory: pub/budd)
-
- I'm distributing this simply because I was very dissapointed when I got
- the little smalltalk from wuarchive in ~\mirrors\msdos\smalltalk and it
- wouldn't run on my system. (I still haven't bothered to take the time and
- figure out why.) This is version 3, which I gather is considerably improved
- in the area of portability over version 1 (which I believe is what is at
- wuarchive). So, hopefully this will work for others.

- NOTE: This code was put in the public domain by the author Tim Budd. I
- have made no real contribution to the code, and I actually have not used
- it much yet. Send your questions to him (or me, but I probably can't
- answer them), or better yet post them on Comp.Lang.Smalltalk. I make
- no guarantee or any of that jazz. If something goes wrong, you have my
- symphathy, but it's your problem.

- P.S. Always a handy piece of information: to exit the little smalltalk
- system, type: ^Z (control-Z which is the DOS end-of-file char).
