    I came from X world to learn smalltalt 4.0 on X and found a lot of 
questions.  


    1. Whenever I have a window opened (aScheduleWindow open), the process
       stops and I can't continue this process anymore.  The direct
       impact is that I can never open two windows (ScheduleWindow) at
       the same time.  What's wrong with this?  Can anyone give me
       a simple example to "open two Schedulewindow's"?

    2. What is the corresponding operation to the concept of X's parent-
       child windows?  Can I group some windows into a window and put it 
       into another window in smalltalk?
    
    3. When I use "inspect" in the program, I face the same problem as
       question 1.  How can I continue the process after "inspect"?

    4. I have "Tutorial", "User's Guide", "Release Notes", and "Installation
       Guide . Sun" for Release 4.0.  Is there any books or manual I can
       get to help me to understand how to use graphics functions?


   I appreciate whoever have patience to read until here.  Please be
more patient to tell me the answers if you know them.
