Using BLOX

BLOX is a GUI front-end to GNU's open-source Smalltalk system, called gst. The system's Web site is

http://www.gnu.org/software/smalltalk/ This Web site includes documentation for gst, as well as the system itself, which you can install on your own Linux or Unix system. (It won't necessarily be easy, though.)

The gst documentation is oriented to gst's command-line system, not programming through BLOX. This page is a tutorial describing how to program with BLOX, without understanding the underlying command-line system.
