Hi ! Do you know if there is any BNF parser for Self available somewhere, for bison or yacc or something like that ? I don't mean a parser generator in Self...

Hi, it's been a while since the last release, so I thought it might be a good time to get the various additions, fixes and changes out. Enjoy and let me know...
Can anyone justify closure treatment in self? It would seem to be more in the spirit of self to merge closures with methods and perform a purely dynamic...
Victor, ... At the language definition level (the implementation is an entirely different story) things are pretty close to what you proposed. But methods are...
Jecel, thank you for a quick response. Firstly, I have no problem with the cloning of the activation records, etc. That makes total sense. I do have issues...
I am finally breaking down and will get a self machine. Is the mac version tolerable or should I just go the sun way? Can I use gnu tools to compile self...
... The latest version of Self/Mac (as of August) is pretty snappy! I don't know what Dave did, but it amounted to a huge improvement on my machine (500 Mhz...

Jecel, thanks for your answers. Let's postpone the activation record discussion (I am very curious about the double-cloning and istalling as own parent...

Thanks for all the insights. I have to seriously think about it and try out a few things in Mr. Gliebe's port (Thank you!!!) so I don't sound like a complete...
Is there a FAQ? I couldn't find one anyway. Just found the (very good) documentation for self under Self 4.0 at Sun - didn't think of looking there before....

Hi Kyle, thanks for the feedback, I'll include the changes in the next release. I think most of the original source code is from 1995 or earlier, and the c++...
