This update of Scratch needs the new Squeak.
Port tarball supplied though diff not that bad.

No need to build any plugins; all needed plugins available via the vm port.
Adding a dependency on Squeak sources v2 and installing changes file
allows users to modify Scratch.
Removed homegrown startup script.
The supplied startup script is now installed. May need modification.
Ports var adjustments for better(?) PLIST.

There are some hard-coded directories (like /usr/share) in
the Scratch image and aiui changes cannot be automated.
If adjusted then all available languages would appear in the language menu
and the "Examples" button in the file dialog would go to the installed examples.
Other problems, if any, can be fixed as well.
Some person would have to make the changes manually and then repackage the 
distfile.

Hi Stu,

Lightly tested on amd64 - using the new squeakvm that you posted.
Will try to test i386 and macppc in the next week (I'm away this weekend).

When starting scratch I have to do:

SC_DIR=/usr/local/share/scratch/ scratch

other wise it says:

port:fred /var/www> scratch
Executing: /usr/local/lib/squeak/squeakvm/squeakvm /Scratch.image
Could not open the Squeak image file `/Scratch.image'.

There are three ways to open a Squeak image file.  You can:
  1. Put copies of the default image and changes files in this directory.
  2. Put the name of the image file on the command line when you
     run squeak (use the `-help' option for more information).
  3. Set the environment variable SQUEAK_IMAGE to the name of the image
     that you want to use by default.

For more information, type: `man squeak' (without the quote characters).

Thanks for the update, cheers

Fred
