HI Gary Perhaps you could explain why the periods pose a problem? In C or Pascal, for example, a semicolon is mandatory as a statement separator. What editor are you using and what is the desired intent of the reconfiguration? Sent from Mail for Windows 10 From: Gary Highberger Hi Help-Smalltalk, I put periods after each line and then the Smalltalk program ran just fine. Is there a way to avoid having to put periods after each line? What end of statement characters besides period does Smalltalk expect? Maybe my editor can be reconfigured accordingly.
