I expect to release in a very short while two nice IDE version of little
smalltalk. One is for MSDOS and uses TurboVision the other runs under
MS-Windows. Both where written as student projects in a course I give
at the Technion. So, hold your breath, it will be out soon. A post to
this newsgroup will be sent.
