if this is regarding the .deb package in the ubuntu repos, you
should report it as a bug to ubuntu; because only the package
maintainer could fix that problem
the last i knew though, gnu-smalltalk was lacking a maintainer
in debian - presumably, it has no maintainer in ubuntu either
so you may
Hi everyone,
Is there a way to access a port (a parallel printer port) with Smalltalk?
In C I use ioperm (request permission), fcntl (open the port) and outb
(send a byte to the port), etc.
Thank you,
Gary
Hi everyone,

appears to be broken. No biggie. I'm just documenting my find.

$ gst-browser
Gtk-Message: 17:44:10.276: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"

it does conform to the spec though - the REPL syntax is exactly
the same as a static file - the dot is not a statement
terminator as with C-like languages - it is a statement
separator, which means it is optional, where there is only one
single statement - the same is true in a method definition -

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 HighbergerSent: Friday, January
