To follow up.

The environment code works, but only converts loaded Packages into 
Environments.  You can not yet compile code for it.

The piece missing is to take the bits of compiler setup to be able to 
supply the proper context when compiling code within an Environment 
rather than assuming a single global (Smalltalk) namespace.

I am a busy guy.  I took time out to get the framebuffer up on 
aarch46/arm64 (vm-display-fbdev).  I am also editing and writing a bit a 
book on Cuis with a couple of fellows (TheCuisBook).  I am also coming 
up to speed on touch devices so that the VM and images can be used on 
phones and tablets.

And the, of course, I _do_ have a life which includes gardening, dog 
walking, shopping/cooking/cleaning/.. you know the rest.

So any help with Environments, even as a user, is useful.

BTW, I did start to port the Squeak solitaire game with 
'Morphic-Games-Solitaire' converted to an Environment.  No problems with 
developing multiple card games.  I did not get far with the port because 
I was doing other things (see above).
