The newer Pier and Magritte versions that I ported to VA Smalltalk using
Grease last fall will presumably be easier to get running on VW as well (if
nobody has done that yet)...

Objet : Re: [vwnc] Store Magritte download
There seems to be an issue there with Magritte attempting to extend
namespace
semantics, and defining a namespace
with defineFirstFindNamespace: ... which the atomic loader does not like.
It looks like someone published a version
which claims it deals with this problem, but it doesn't seem to. You can
try going to the Store settings, and under
Loading policies turn off "Use the Atomic Loader". There are other things
you can do, and someone should really fix
that, but that's probably the easiest thing for a beginner.
You probably also want to load MagritteForVisualWorks rather than
Magritte-All.
Other than the namespace issue,
and a walkback in trying to initialize, that was fairly easily bypassed, it
seemed to load OK. But I didn't try to
run it.
