As you can see, the code isn't being printed. What would be the
command to print the method code in the Account class?
That's a bug. :-)
Are you using readline or not (i.e., can you edit the lines you enter
into gst using left/right arrow, and recall the history using up/down
arrow)?
OK. Am using standard 2.3.3 package in Gentoo Linux. Readline works in
the st environment on this machine. I can contact the package maintainer
- at least I know now I had the right instruction.
Smalltalk addSubspace: #Scripting.
Namespace current: Scripting.
However, all classes can be obtained with "Object withAllSubclasses" if
you prefer a prefix. (I just added "nil allSubclasses" to GNU Smalltalk
trunk, which will also give other classes that, like "Autoload", derive
directly from nil).
Thank you
Also, GNU Smalltalk does not use the image that much. You just build
the image on the fly, starting from a basic one, by loading one or more
files.
I see. That is a better way of doing it and easier to maintain scripts.
Thirdly, is there a way to make an operating system shell call and
retrieve the output of the call. For instance is it possible to submit
"ls -l /etc" to the operating system and to get the output of this
command?
Yes:
pipe := FileStream popen: 'ls -l /etc' dir: FileStream read.
pipe contents
This is gold so far as bash scripting goes! I was hoping there was a
way. Thank you.
