nice , good to know that is already a feature in another smalltalk implementation. I decided finally to go against the idea of new sytax or the heavy usage of Array symbols. Instead I will be using standard 100% Pharo syntax. Fortunately Smalltalk syntax is so minimal that allows me to do this without hitting my head against a wall. I have already a prototype working for simple variable declarations with static types and slowly but steadily moving forward to the rest of the C syntax. Looks like the ship has left the port :D
