> Smalltalk existed, but it was a world unto itself and was not meant to write native-looking applications. Huh? There have been Smalltalk language implementations based on MS Win controls (as-if they were MS VB programs). http://www.object-arts.com/dolphin7.html http://www.object-arts.com/dolphin7.html Also Digitalk Smalltalk for MS Win and OS/2. Also IBM Smalltalk. ~ There have been Smalltalk language implementations that emulated native widget Look & Feel (various MS Win, OS/2, Motif/CDE, MacOS). Obviously putting a lot of effort into providing "native-looking" applications. Common-place to copy a Smalltalk app from a Mac to a MS Win PC and switch the emulation from MacOS to MSWin.
