From what I understand, a long-awaited upgrade to Mac/V is in the works
for later this year that will add the ability to create executable
modules and will also address some of the class incompatibilties that
now exist among the various versions of ST/V.  

Hopefully, Digitalk will live up to it's promises and as they grow, and get
some better technical support.  We knew more than they did after taking
just one week of classes.

It seems to be the curse of software that the really small companies
come out with really good products and really bad support.
