Thanks.
I opened a Transcript during the install and a file permission was blocking the git tools installation (which is where I crashed and burned on my initial attempt)
So, per instructions at Nicolay's blog, the Croquet is installed into Squeak6.0alpha.
Opening the preferences->flaps->show shared flaps ->widgets->object catalogue->Croquet
Demo (Master) hangs at loading fish.mesh
Croquet(Master)
puts a big yellow X in the red box and then two errors: UndefinedObject(Object)>>doesNotUnderstand: #stringIndex and FullBlockClosure(Object)>>> doesNot Understand#[] where the brackets are a glyph for non-supported character...
let me change system fonts...
nope.
Alright, at least I have areas I can set breakpoints SmalltalkEditor(TextEditor)>>markIndex and OGLUnixX11LE(OGLUnix))>>openGLLibraryName are barfing.
Later today, I will set about debugging that.
thanks for your help.
