I used Smalltalk/V at the university, a couple of years before Java sprung into existence.

Pharo just to occasionally check how much it has changed since those days.

Yes, Smalltalk does provide a similar experience to Lisp Machines.

Also if you read Xerox papers about Mesa XDE and Mesa/Cedar, one the goals was to provide a developer experience similar to the Lisp and Smalltalk workstations in the context of a strong typed systems programming language.



Thanks, I never bothered with MESA/Cedar.. because mesa reminds me of opengl linux libs .. enjoy the wat.
