What is a good way to distribute squeak on a network (Windows network at my school) ?
From my understanding there is no option but to give each student their own personal image file but the sources and changes files could be left out.
http://billkerr2.blogspot.com/2007/07/image-file-virtual-machine-bytecodes.htmlIf I was going to give students both Bots and Squeak then this would result in quite large student folders, the image files range b/w 15 and 20 MB. But I don't see any alternative.
With Bots I get prompts about missing sources and changes files if I try to launch it outside of its folder, but it then goes ahead and loads anyway
I'll attach some file folders so people can refer to them in an answer, if necessary:
BOTS (file sizes in KB unless otherwise specified)
.DS_Store 7
Bots.exe 1053
Bots.ini 1
luth.frm 13
