VASmalltalk, Wine and Mac OSX
by admin on Dec.04, 2009, under Smalltalk
I got my first Christmas present on Wednesday - a Mac Mini, running under Mac OS X. I never had a Macintosh computer before and therefore its a complete new world for me.
My first impression was: nice and smart. Installation went pretty well, but the Mac Mini smells after opening in the air like cheap plastic.
After the first evening I started to look for development tools - first I looked for Smalltalk.
VASmalltalk
The windows version is in general runnable under Wine under Mac OSX 10.6. I was not able to run the normal installation, but I zipped my original Windows based installation and copied the installation under the “Wine Files” folder under my Mac account.
Then I changed abt.ini according to my Mac Wine settings and copies abt.icx and abt.ini into the bin folder.
Then the system started without problems, connecting to ENVY working without problems.
