That's really great. I haven't done any AppKit stuff yet, mainly because I am developing it on a headless box via ssh (it's slightly depressing that, now, the main thing keeping me on OS X is the really nice terminal emulator in Leopard). I just committed auto-boxing of arguments. This means that you can now: Pass primitives to Smalltalk. Implement methods returning primitives in Smalltalk. Send messages with primitives as arguments to Smalltalk. Blocks still don't work as upwards funargs and symbols are not yet supported, but apart from that I think it's mostly done for version 1.0.
