If I’ve a small Smalltalk program, how do I turn it into an image ?

edit

Simple question : let’s say for example I’ve an Hello World to a text file, I know this isn’t very smalltalkish but how do I turn the code into an image I can run ? 2A01:E0A:ACF:90B0:0:0:A03F:E788 (talk) 15:17, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please clarify? I don't understand how you can "run" an image, but a screenshot will turn the code into an image. Shantavira|feed me 08:28, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
One of the meanings of image is "executable".  ​‑‑Lambiam 10:23, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
In smalltalk, executables are Objects that contains the memory/state of their execution  a smalltalk program always have it’s execution paused/resumed. 2A01:E0A:ACF:90B0:0:0:A03F:E788 (talk) 23:50, 29 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
What is your OS? For example Dolphin Smalltalk claims it can produce standalone Windows executables. 68.187.174.155 (talk) 12:08, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

So Dolphin Smalltalk may be the solution.  ​‑‑Lambiam 09:39, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
