I want to be able to evaluate a string like '2 + arg1' and supply anObject
for arg1 to the compiler.

I naively tried:
| aContext |
aContext := thisContext copy
        tempNamed: 'arg1' put: 1;
        yourself.
Compiler evaluate: '2 + arg1' in: aContext to: nil

which didn't even come close to working!

Any pointers?

a workaround:
Yes, we should provide a nice API… it is on my TODO but I did not manage to work on it yet.
