Basic Questions

[Gary Highberger]

I'm teaching myself GNU Smalltalk.
• Dual boot Macbook Air running Ubuntu 20.04
• GST 3.2.5
• Documentation:
        https://www.gnu.org/software/smalltalk/manual/gst.txt
        Bluebook

1.  Does Emacs support gst? Neither .st file text highlighting nor
interactor mode appear to work. The documentation says gst works with Emacs.

2.  Is pi and Float supported? The class extend example (area and
circumference methods) doesn't work.

3.  Does gst have a separate editor mode? The documentation implies it does.

4.  I'm using vim as my editor and loading my program using FileStream
fileIn: 'myfile.st'. I'm debugging using printNl. Is this the best way? Vim
knows st keywords.

5.  Does the web server, swazoo, and framework, seaside, work? I couldn't
get them to run.

6.  My application is realtime machinery control with web page UI.

7.  Does gst-browser work?

Many thanks,

Gary
