It would be a good idea to have the modification below in the gnu smalltalk git repository;
it's coherent with the comments on _ and := in the GNU smalltalk manual,
that those are both accepted by gnu smalltalk as assignment.

By the way, comments are enclosed in double quotes "" but what I observe with the Alto Smalltalk-72 font,
is that those are printed as 'fingers' symbols, but I doubt that is current practice.

Also the ! character is printed as a doubled up-arrow.
