Incidentally, I'm not sure about Squeak as the main user-facing bit, either. I love the idea of having a handheld, battery-powered, internet connected Smalltalk machine; but Squeak's UI is currently very desktop-focussed, and sing

There's a lovely Perlisism for this: "A programming language is low level when its programs require attention to the irrelevant." Which is interesting in this context because it's clearly not a good fit for Ante, where i

That could be one use, yes. There's a whole spectrum of options available for that kind of thing! You could pop Squeak SystemWindows out into separate X11 windows; you could make Squeak the X window manager; etc. I'm currently put

I wrote this because I’m mid-way through building a native Smalltalk X11 protocol implementation for Squeak.

This might need a bit of unpacking to ensure that people don't come away with the impression that you're talking about "great replacement" white supremacist bullshit here. Assuming, of course, you're not.

`singledispatchmethod` definitely looks useful. The name isn't great, though. It actually offers double dispatch , not single dispatch! `divider.divide(10, 2)` first dispatches on `divider`, then on `10`. As so often with Python, I&#x
