ObjectMemory's snapshot?
SystemDictionary methodsFor: 'saving the image'!
snapshot: aString
ObjectMemory snapshot: aString

- will fix it for you, but really the tutorial should be corrected.
Sorry, I should have mentioned, I understand the above 'fix' but what
I'm not understanding (yet) is where the initial message "Smalltalk
snapshot:aString" or command shell is defined for such behaviour.
So, for example, the command:
Smalltalk at: #s put: 2 !
Is the Smalltalk class use above an alias for SystemDictionary? How
does this all tie together in other words? Where is this behaviour
customised?
Thanks.
with regards,
