Hi James,
If you define a class as your main entry point with a name other than SmalltalkTool (which is a silly name - I should change it to something more sensible, like Application), then you need to add -C to the edlc command line to specify the class, like this:
$ edlc -l EtoileUI -f HelloWorld.st -C HelloWorld
This is documented in the edlc man page, but I'm not sure if that gets correctly installed...
The EtoileUI documentation appears to be buggy - hopefully Quentin will fix it.
