No, but this comes close:
{'key1'->'value1'. 'key2'->'value2'} as: Dictionary.

Sorry... forgot one other thing... I'd like to be able to
initialize the table using a literal, like:
#( #(1 4 3)
#(4 3 6)
#(9 5 4) )
That would be a real bonus, because the table is quite large and I
want to be able to 'see' the table in the source code so I can
change it easily.

This is a smalltalk question, but hopefully not too off-topic...
I need a lookup table object... something to which I can send a
message like:
anElement := myTable index1: #aSymbol index2: #anotherSymbol
The underlying structure is actually a table... rows and
columns... and I want to be able to fetch elements in the table.
I am thinking myTable should hold a dictionary of dictionaries,
(a hash of hashes, I might say if using another language), but I
am wondering if there is a more smalltalk-ish way to do this?
Any suggestions much appreciated.
