I used to use this language back in 1990. It matches my way of programming fairly well. Now I have some concepts I want to try out, so what’s available now? What’s best and free or low-cost? Is a development environment for it available in the form of an iPad app? Or can it be used produce iPad apps?
Google [best version of smalltalk]:

- {Squeak Smalltalk is popularly recommended here. I knew one of its developers once.}
- {However for Windows, the Windows-specific version, Dolphin Smalltalk, is better integrated with the OS etc.}
Now about iOS (iPhhone/iPad) devices:

- {Looks like Steve Jobs banned it, along with Adobe’s Flash}
Being as I am mostly Windows-based, I’ll give Dolphin Smalltalk a go…
