    https://github.com/Cuis-Smalltalk/Cuis-Smalltalk-Dev https://github.com/Cuis-Smalltalk/Cuis-Smalltalk-Dev Download and search !Compiler in: ./Cuis7-0-main/CuisImage/Cuis7.0.sources :and you'll see the commented Compiler class source code: "The compiler accepts Smalltalk source code and compiles it with respect to a given class. The user of the compiler supplies a context so that temporary variables are accessible during compilation." It would be easier to install Cuis Smalltalk and use the Smalltalk browsers to explore the Compiler code.
