Russ - The trick is to put the --no-quit after the eval not before it. I was putting it in the wrong place.
This should work: ./pharo Pharo.image eval --no-quit "OSWindowWorldMorph new open" This works with the latest headless VM and Pharo 9. Hope this helps. Ken -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html
