is there a difference between Intel 64 bits and amd64 ?

Remember it has to be the latest VM code because of the closures. All of this would be REALLY nice. Pharo and Squeak support for Linux is poor. Can you take it ? ahaha I have Linux, but 32 bits ;) Best, Mariano > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Pharo-project mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project >
