Eventually, if I ever get it finished. I may release the .image and .changes files, along with some other important stuff. So yes, it will work on windows, there just wouldn't be any .exe file. 

Thats what SoftDEV should do. 

SoftDeV has released an image file.

Wow that's VERY ironic... The day I upload Blocktalk to Mediafire, I find and fix the problem. 
To put it short, the problem was that the blocks in the instance pane wouldn't run and the fix was only a matter of finding a hiding method.
Long and more detailed explanation: I knew the reason they wouldn't run is because somewhere, Scratch (Or Blocktalk for that matter  ) has to find the blocks before it can do anything with them. I finally found the method that does so. It is located in
Scratch-Objects//ScriptableScratchMorph//scripts #scripts.
The original method is

scripts
    "Answer my scripts, a collection of HatBlockMorphs."

    (blocksBin isKindOf: Morph) ifFalse: [^ blocksBin].
    ^ blocksBin submorphs select: [:m | m isKindOf: HatBlockMorph]

And I modified it to

scripts
    "Answer my scripts, a collection of HatBlockMorphs."
    | scripts |
    scripts _ (blocksBin submorphs select: [:m | m isKindOf: HatBlockMorph])
                , (instanceBlocksBin submorphs select: [:m | m isKindOf: HatBlockMorph]).
    (blocksBin isKindOf: Morph)
        ifFalse: [^ blocksBin].
    ^ scripts

Updated to the latest version!

Fixed:
• Highlighting the correct tab at the start
• More tab... stuff

Hey, is there a way to report if a class exists or not?

Smalltalk classNamed: 'name'.
If the class exists, it returns the class, otherwise it returns nil.

I am starting a Scratch Mod called Blocktalk (It was originally called Scratchtalk, but I found out that it violates the tems of use). It will be like the bridge between Scratch and the language it was programmed in, Smalltalk and I hope it will let other advanced Scratch users learn Smalltalk.


The Differences

• It will include four categories in the top of the script editor instead of three:

Class Scripts, Instance Scripts, Costumes and Sounds.

• It will also have a few new blocks.

To do list
Add the class and instance framework by
   • Separate the Class scripting pane and Instance pane to only show certain blocks
   • Making each 'sprite' (later to be called a class; right now its still just a 'sprite') a real Smalltalk class
   • Separating the blocks for only what the


If you would like to help me develop this, you can suggest new features for future versions, or maybe provide artwork and/or sample projects, or in any other way you feel is appropriate. 
________________
Also, feel free to ask me anything about Blocktalk and I will try my best to answer it. 
And I will not be accepting any offers to program, sorry.    But you can help me with any code, just tell me it! 
________________
You can download the latest (but unfinished) build here. But only use it to look at the code and maybe provide useful suggestions; as it might mess up your Scratch projects.

Have a great day! 

Please reupload to 4shared. Web filters (I call them Web Viruses) block mediafire.

Looks awesome so far!!!!!

I now need the Sourceforge download.

This will be perfect for me.
