I was reading the TODO file looking for items I might be capable of working on,
and saw
a comment concerning depreciating SMALLTALK_IMAGE and SMALLTALK_KERNEL
in favor of --image-directory and --kernel-directory: "(harder than it looks)" Can you
elaborate a little on that comment please ?
Sure, the problem is that SMALLTALK_IMAGE and SMALLTALK_KERNEL are read
in init_paths and _gst_image_file_path is used to process the '-K'
option. You should make sure that "--image-directory foo -K bar.st" has
the same result as "-K bar.st --image-directory foo". Likewise,
"--image-directory foo -I bar.im" and "-I bar.im --image-directory foo"
should both load bar.im from the current directory, rather than foo/gst.im.
