Hello,

I'm a newcomer to Smalltalk, and I've installed Cincom Smalltalk Non-
commercial on my Mac (10.6). I've been following along in the
WalkThrough pdf included with the distribution, but I'm having some
trouble getting the Hello World Application to run as a standalone
package. I've created the HelloWriter class as instructed, and tested
it in the workspace, and I've created the package, and tested it in
the Test Application part of the Runtime Packager. Everything works
fine; a dialog box displaying "Hello World" is indeed produced, with a
button that causes the box to disappear when clicked. However, when I
clicked on the created image file, hello.im, only an empty dialog box
is produced: no text, no button. What am I doing wrong? Thanks a lot!

In general I'd avoid the Runtime Packager. For builds, I use a
scripting approach - see

for a few screencasts on that topic
