Spoon 3 beta 2 released

Hi all--

     I've released Spoon 3 beta 2, see [1]. This is an important one,
because it's the first one that opens a remote browser onto a small
headless memory automatically. With this one it's pretty easy to browse
around.

     So now there's a memory with development tools in it, and a small
memory which takes the place of the old changes file (by remembering
changes in an object database). Next, I’ll set up a third memory, a
minimal environment which can the basis of a full Smalltalk distribution
(e.g., Squeak 5). I’ll write instructions for creating unit tests for
each package in our communities, and imprinting the code run by those
tests into the minimal memory, thereby creating a module. We can work
toward releases where all the packages anyone might want to load are
served by some online history memory, with package metadata searchable
with Google[2].


     thanks!

AppleScript could not see the image, but that was easy to fix by
dragging the script into the same/Resources directory.
The mini image starts and is broadcasting on 8090. It sets up a web page
to present a link to start the development image. Nifty.
For the first time HTTPServer is publicly available. It's in the mini
image, which I can inspect from the open browser on the development
image world.  Going to package New and then class Welcome and method
'act' I can see where the web page is coming from. Cool.

Starting to explore, send feedback ASAP.

As you know , my wish is build a more compatible version of Reduced Cuis
( Cuis3.1r.4f of 2.5 Mb)

The spoon.ini file does not point to the image in the Resources
directory, but changing it does not seem to help.

I cant start the A667BC2A-566E-4C1D-9A60-119D7A380196 image with that VM.

Why isn't there a .image extension on the A667... image ?

     Hm. In Spoon 3 alpha 3 that was because the Windows Spoon VM I made
had dynamically-linked bits which have been removed from recent released
of Windows (libcrt.dll). For 3a5 I linked a new version of the VM that
had everything in it statically, and I reused this in subsequent
releases. I'll have to take another look, thanks.

     Can you give an English translation on your decompressor errors?


     thanks again,
