A Smalltalk implementation that differs from most other Smalltalk systems in a number of respects. The most significant difference is the use of ASCII text files rather than image files. This allows the system to interact with other tools developed by the FSF but at the same time it precludes the use of the automatic tools that people are accustomed to from normal Smalltalk systems.
The OS/2 version was unusually enough derived from the DOS version of the system and never gained any popularity, there was a bit of interest in the mid 90s as it was the only open source variant of the language available, but the open sourcing of Squeak by Apple and the availability of "demo" Smalltalk versions from sundry vendors including IBM that, although functionally crippled, were still more powerful for private use than GNU Smalltalk meant that the package never saw any real use on the OS/2 system.
