[Help-smalltalk] gst-remote in git HEAD

[Stefan Schmiedl]

Greetings,

a few hours ago I have installed GNU Smalltalk from git,
even posted my first blog post about it :-o

I am having some troubles with gst-remote, however. Starting
from scratch with a newly built image:

address@hidden ~ $ gst -i -I gst.im
"Global garbage collection... done"
GNU Smalltalk ready

st> ^D
address@hidden ~ $ gst-remote -I gst.im --daemon

address@hidden ~ $ gst-remote server started.


address@hidden ~ $ gst-remote --eval '3+4'
/usr/local/share/smalltalk/kernel/../scripts/Remote.st:276: Aborted

Aborted

At this point, the server process is still running, but 
even just trying to "gst-remote --kill" it, shows now
effect. So I guess that it's a problem in the client
connecting to the server.

BTW: what's the difference between --server and --daemon?

Thanks,
s.
