I have just started exploring Strongtalk again and I find the type checking features of Strongtalk really helpful; the type checker alerts you to silly mistakes when you accept a change. Also the user interface for browsing around the system is really very good and easy to understand. There is always a danger with graphical interfaces that they will force you to enter text into tiny little boxes and prevent you from seeing the bigger picture. I think the outliner view avoids that trap while still lending useful structure to things. The version on the main site (the 2.0 release) has been quite unreliable (unusably so for me.) It might be worth replacing it now, with a link to the current version which seems much better. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Strongtalk-general" group.
