Juan Manuel Vuletich has released a current 
Squeak ported for OS2. Get it at:
http://www.sugarweb.com/squeak/ports/os2native/
os2english.htm

Squeak is the open source smalltalk. It comes 
with, or rather is, an entire development 
environment with many surprises. Squeak 
applications run bit-identical on just about 
every OS and hardware architecture in common 
(and not so common) use.

Juan's port includes full network access and 
handles native sound and uses DIVE for fast 
video. This latest version of Squeak comes with 
Midi support, a web browser and server, an 
email application, shockwave support, a 3D 
animation system, remote update and authoring, 
and more. By the way, Squeak is written in 
itself - you can inspect, change and extend any 
part of the language, application, or even the 
virtual machine, while it is running.

Smalltalk is a pure OO language that been 
around for a long time. Squeak is a dialect 
that is highly compatible with Smalltalk-80 
(the historical standard). The team behind 
Squeak includes the original authors of 
Smalltalk (including Alan Kay of PARC fame). 
They mostly hide out at Disney (after living at 
Apple for a few years). Squeak is evolving 
rapidly.

Squeak should be of special interest to the OS2 
community. This is a this is a state-of-the-art 
cross-platform language and development system. 
It deserves a careful look by everyone 
interested in OO programming. It is also way 
more fun. (WARNING: this stuff is addictive).
