A while back, I posted a request to the net for information on the
Model-View-Controller (MVC) paradigm in Smalltalk-80.  I haven't
received much information so far, but following is a summary of the
responses I did receive:

[From Larry Tesler]
A little information is available in the new book "Object-Oriented
Programming for the Macintosh" by Kurt Schmucker, Hayden Books, 1986.

[From  Mike (mike@bellcore.com)]
Try looking at how browsers are constructed in the third (red) book.
Also try looking at the MouseMenuController -- this is the most basic
controller, and the one on which everything else hinges.


Also, several people pointed out that Tektronix' "Advanced Course" on
Smalltalk-80 covers the Model-View-Controller paradigm, along with
other things.
