What I liked about Smalltalk is the IDE and the language so I had two ideas. Use Ruby instead, which is similar but with a more expressive syntax. The IDE shouldn't save the code in a DB but as regular Ruby files (1 class per file) but the programmer would still only see one method implementation at a time in the IDE.
