Bits of smalltalk syntax (eg the "object message:parameters ") live on
in Objective-C/Objective-C++.

Ironically, Objective-C (and Java) are *the* primary languages Apple
software supports for writing native (cocoa) Mac OS X applications.

So, in some ways, smalltalk ideas live on...

(This is based on the 10.2 "Jaguar" version of the dev tools (ie
pre-Xcode), but I'd be *very*, *very* suprised if they dropped
Objective-C)
