Bug Description

Binary package hint: squeak-vm

So that scripts do not have to duplicate the "find where squeakvm is in lib" logic that /usr/bin/squeak does, we should enable a user to use the following syntax:

    /usr/bin/squeak [image] [changes] -- [additional parameters]

This would be very helpful for the Scratch project as well. We include our own plugin that does not ship with the VM, so it would be great if we could tell this script where to find our preferred Plugins directory.
