A Squeak VM written in RPython.



### Download



All-in-One bundle for Linux, Windows and macOS:



[![Download zip][dl_zip_badge]][dl_zip] [![Download tar.gz][dl_tgz_badge]][dl_tgz]



Pre-built 32-bit binaries:



[![Download Linux][dl_linux_badge]][dl_linux] [![Download macOS][dl_macos_badge]][dl_macos] [![Download Windows][dl_win_badge]][dl_win]



Pre-built 64-bit binaries (note that the goal for RSqueak/VM to support all

image formats that are <= the native word size - so the 64-bit VMs should open

both 32-bit and 64-bit images; it should simply be faster. Due to limitations of

the underlying RPython toolchain, Windows binaries cannot currently be built in

64-bit mode):

We also have experimental builds for Raspberry Pi:

### Finding a working image



Although RSqueak can load images starting with Squeak 2, many primitives are not

implemented and instead rely on in-image fallback code to be available and

correct. For example, we do not have a BitBlt implementation, so unprepared

images will simply stay black. This is why only a Trunk image of Squeak with the

latest version of VMMaker from the VMMaker.oscog branch fully works. Try this in

a recent Trunk image to prepare it for use with RSqueak/VM:



```Smalltalk

(Installer squeak project: 'VMMaker') install: 'VMMaker.oscog'.

MCMcmUpdater updateFromServer.

```



Note that RSqueak/VM will *always* save images in 32-bit Cog-Spur format,

regardless of what it was when you opened it. So make sure to save as new

version if you want to keep the original around.
