Simply use the squeak VM as your starting point. If there is a C compiler and sufficient memory to hold the image, all of squeak can be ported to a new processor in a few week. Alan Kay's original Smalltalk team did that with the MIckey Mouse PDA when they were working at Disney — they knew who they would be working for next and so named the opensource Smalltalk-80 project at Apple "Squeak" in honor of that venerable old mouse. Even after the team left Disney, the name stuck (and now you know the rest of the story). |
