I recall the same problem with Chess in the 3.8 image for OS X downloaded from squeak.org. In the image downloaded from squeakland.org though, it works fine - even lets me win from time to time. :)

I just downloaded the latest stable (3.8) version of squeak for Linux and for Windows. After a little exploration, I found the chess object. I dragged it to the desktop, but the first time I touched a piece, it threw an exception (smallInteger>>asciiValue not understood). A couple of days later, after (re-)learning some Smalltalk, I found where a byte array was being passed to a String method that expected a String parameter. A small fix later (sending "asString" to the byte array) and the chess program seemed to be working. A few of questions: 1) If this is a known problem with a known fix, how could I have discovered that? 2) Is there a way to save/update code from the debugger? (I made the change in the class browser.) 3) If this is not a known problem, where/how do I make my fix available for everyone? Thanks, Kevin W.
