Hello,

I'm newby by the newbies and red some tutorials across squeak www.
I've heard about smalltalk for a long time but just decided to try it.
I'd like to program a management software for table tennis tournament.
Is it possible to build that with squeak ?

Squeak is a general-purpose programming environment, so sure, you could build something like that in Squeak.

Is it possible to load and run a smalltalk application by a dummy user
without being faced to smalltalk environment ?

Yes. The way you do it is to actually open your application's main window inside Squeak and save the image with your app running. Also, add a "quit" action to your app that quits Squeak. To distribute your app, bundle a VM executable for the target platform with the image file, so that double-clicking the executable opens your image, et voilà, dummy user is happy :)
