When developers design...

I've just downloaded VisualWorks Smalltalk 7.4 non-commercial, and I have to say that well, it looks like the IDE was designed by programmers. Many portions of the environment are confusing, and the terminology is different than what Mac/PC coders are used to - you don't 'save' and interface, you 'install' it; and you don't 'run' it to test it, you 'open' it. I'm still trying to figure out how to make a button open a window and say 'hello world'. Smalltalk is such a simple, beautiful language - I wish there were an environment with those same properties.

And here's a curious message I recently encountered:


There are just too many terms that sound similar: Namespaces, Packages, Parcels and Bundles. Also, I can't seem to create a new method for a class. I can create a new class and protocol, but there is no 'new method'?? This is a rant, if you couldn't tell. I just wonder sometimes why things have to be so difficult.
