In case anybody is interested, I think I have T-Gen paritally working under
Smalltalk/V 3.0.x.  There are some rough edges and several rubber bands,
but it seems to be working.

I haven't gotten it to the point where I'd consider submitting it to
UIUC (and chances are I won't in the near future), but if anyone would
like a rough version for Smalltalk/V, drop me a line.

BTW, sorry I was a little vague in my message.  I'm working with
Smalltalk/V, not VisualWorks.  I'm not sure what would be involved
to get the parser in the VisualWorks Advanced Tools working under
Smalltalk/V, but I suspect it might be easier to just wait a year :-)
