Hi, I'm following a tutorial on using Greenfoot and there is reference to compiling 'Wombatworld'. I do not have a compile button. How do I compile the world so that it appears on the screen?

Do not fret. Greenfoot now auto-compiles. If there are no syntax errors, you should be able to click on the main frame and have your world created.
