[Cuis-dev] Emacs & Smalltalk

Hi all!
 thank you for your comments!
 I was looking for a "way of thinking" connection between EMacs & Smalltalk
(and see that I wrote Emacs and not Lisp... Smalltalk is the language + the
environment, Emacs is the environment, Lisp the language, the separation
there is more clear).
 I'm trying to see if there could be (or if it was) a synergy we could have
with the Emacs community, it is very similar to the Smalltalk values and
objectives... I'm wondering why don't we have more connection/interaction
with them? What do you think? (I know that interaction between different
language cultures is almost nonexistent and very difficult to achieve, look
the many Smalltalks we have :-) )

 Cheers!
 Hernan.
