This is a test of the Smalltalk/DLR compiler which can now understand simple unary and binary Smalltalk messages.

Next to be added are keyword messages, cascaded messages and blocks.

Once blocks are working, I can start testing iterations (“whileTrue:”, “do:”, etc) and branching (“ifTrue:”, “ifFalse:”, etc).

The port is going somewhat faster than I had anticipated, and I don’t expect any major problems.
