Smalltalk is surprisingly OK to develop on the phone. I've written a little on-screen keyboard in Smalltalk (subject of my next blogpost; [1,2]), and it's just a naive qwerty layout, but it works OK for the short methods common to Smalltalk programming. Very early days, plenty of improvements to be made, but I was surprised that it wasn't an immediate fail.

Another awesome thing about Squeak Smalltalk: the total amount of code I had to write for the on-screen keyboard was 234 SLOC :-)
