STicky is a pluggable real-time evaluator and/or translator workspace
aimed to learn languages. For a quick overview please take a look at
the presentation video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9uUIEaGyoU

The Smalltalk evaluator could be useful in learning courses or for
newbies typing expressions, but other translators/evaluators may help
with more advanced usage, it all depends of the source and target
languages you're using. Some default external translators, which does
the real job, were included :

Smalltalk to JavaScript (ST2JS by Diego Gomez Deck)
Smalltlak to Java (Smalltalk2Java by Alexandre Bergel)
Smalltalk to SQL (ROE by Avi Bryant)
Smalltalk to AST nodes (Marcus Denker et al)
HTML validator ( Todd Blanchard)
JSON to Smalltalk (Tony Garnock-Jones et al)
(...contact me if you want to add your translator in the release, a
facility to automatic installation of translators is provided)

You can easily plug translators and the workspace will update the
current contents dynamically inside a sticky-like dialog or a fixed
pane, the updater interface was decoupled to make possible other kinds
of widgets too, but this is a bit experimental.

Neat stuff. I think I'll play with this a little.

I'm confused Smalltalk to Java is not really a smalltalk to java but a
a minimal subset and it is quite slow.

Do you have a full smalltalk interpreter?
I'm looking for that (I would like to code one that deals with
explicit returns and exception

I wonder if a variation of that could be used in the iPhone as a legal
App Store app or apps. Since you're not actually trying to run (?) a
real program, but only learn the syntax of the language, would it get
around Apple's licensing issues for the iphone apps? Would be a pretty
decent "hook" for people to become more aware of Squeak/Smalltalk if it
flew.

The Commodore C64 emulator that was on the store was taken down by the
fact you could get to
Commodore Basic. I have read of other language supporters who have
attempted to get their language
into the store and failed.

But given the fact all the code is available someone could take a run
at it.
