That imply isn't the way Smalltalk works Richard. It sounds as if you  
would gain a lot by reading up on how Smalltalk works and how it is  
very different to old ways of doing things.

Try  Smalltalk Central (http://www.smalltalk-central.com/ 
showDocument.ssp?section=Articles&name=Documentation), http:// 
www.iam.unibe.ch/~ducasse/FreeBooks.html etc.

Basically we just don't do dead code. As one wag put it "source code  
in files? How quaint."

There can never be a computer language in which you cannot write a  
bad program.
