Downloading Squeak
Please read the license for Squeak.
No matter what system you are on you will need to end up with these four files to run Squeak 3.7, the latest released version:
- Squeak3.7-nnnn-full.image
- Squeak3.7-nnnn-full.changes
- SqueakV3.sources
- Squeak VM for your system, version 3.4 or later.
The first three files are platform-independent and the
nnnn means some version number. The fourth file
is the interpreter, or virtual machine (VM), and you must get one
that is intended for your particular computer. For
Macs, Windows, and some unix/linux systems there
are full packages containing all
necessary files below. For other
systems one must check. If a full package is not built for
your system you can find the system independent files in the
3.7 directory of the
ftp site.
A complete CD is also offered by
Squeak e.V
For those of you who want to play tester, you may also download
the
3.8 alpha files.
All files must be downloaded in Binary mode
Put them all in the same directory. Launch the image and the VM
together, if possible.
For up to the minute download info, see the Download
Squeak page on the Swiki.
Even though image, sources, and changes are the same across platforms,
we list them by operating system, so they will come packed in the
proper format.
Further Downloading Information
If you have trouble starting Squeak, Read the troubleshooting
section.
If you need to download individual files or older versions of Squeak, see the primary ftp archive at UIUC,
at ftp://st.cs.uiuc.edu/Smalltalk/Squeak/.
Or better, use one of the primary archive mirrors at one of these locations:
Windows 98/95, NT, XP, and CE
|
Click here to download Squeak 3.7 for Win 98/95, NT, and XP.
You will get a zip archive of all four files needed for Squeak.
For Windows CE the best choice is to go to Yoshiki
Ohshima's WinCE
site.
Once you are in Squeak, left mouse button to select, right for
the content menu, ALT-click is the window menu, ALT-period to
interrupt or use Ctrl-Break. (port by Andreas Raab) |
Macintosh
|
MacOS 7.5 through 9.2 Classic, and MacOS X (Carbon and Cocoa)
Squeak 3.7 is available as a bundle of files: Squeak3.7-current-MacOS-Full.sit.
In Squeak on the Mac, Option-click for content menu, Command-click
for window menu (a.k.a. Apple or flower key), Command-period
to interrupt.
The current Mac VM application is a "combined" application that includes parts for
both Carbon and the Mac Classic OS.
(Now supported and developed by John M.
McIntosh. Original port by Dan Ingalls and John Maloney, with Alan Kay, Ted
Kaehler, and Scott Wallace at Apple, then continued
at Disney.)
A Cocoa Port of the Unix VM for OS X
(If you don't know what this means, use the standard Mac VM above.)
Get the VM from Marcel Weiher's cocoa port page at
http://www.metaobject.com/downloads/Squeak/. Then get the images,
changes, and sources file from the 3.7 directory. It has some interesting features,
and if you get the VM source, it allows you to embed squeak as a framework into
other Cocoa applications.
(original Cocoa port by Marcel Weiher.)

Unix
|
Master Squeak Unix site:
http://www-sor.inria.fr/~piumarta/squeak.
Squeak runs on many Unix OS's and should compile "out
of the box" for most versions of Unix running on most architectures,
using only GNU
make. Squeak's makefiles use many extensions
provided only by GNU make and are thus
incompatible with other make versions.
Lex's
Patch Page has a lot of useful patches.
Note that sound only works on some of ports, for further
information check the master Squeak Unix
site.
We currently offer the source and some prebuilt
packages in
this directory. If you get the
source then you will also need to get
the image, changes, and sources file from the
3.7 directory.
Left mouse button to select, right for content menu, ALT-click
is the window menu, ALT-period to interrupt.

If you are trying Squeak on the iPAQ running linux a good choice would be
too look at Kevin's Linux/iPAQ pages
