   I'm having trouble with the Emacs Interactor for GNU Smalltalk 1.1 on
   an HP9000/350 running HPUX 7.0 (Emacs is a vanilla 18.55).  Following
   the directions given the Smalltalk "info" documentation, I get the
   message below in the Emacs status line immediately after typing
   "C-c m" in the test file "t.st" while in Smalltalk mode:

	   "Symbol's value as variable is void: shell-mode-map"

   I know very little about elisp so this is quite baffling to me.
   Anybody have it working?  I'm a Smalltalk novice and I've grown weary
   of the straight command line interface.

   Also, anyone have STIX working on an HP 9000?

   Thanks in advance for any help.

I also had the problem with the shell-mode-map. To get around it, I
simply created a shell (M-x shell) before I ran Smalltalk.
