GNU Smalltalk - Formatting output and disabling GC messages

How do I disable garbage collection messages with GNU Smalltalk 3.0.5 stable? Also, is there a way to remove the quote marks output when outputting strings?

Ex:
'test' printNl.

prints

'test'

rather than

test

Garbage collection messages are disabled automatically when you use your program as a script (i.e. with gst -f), or you can use --no-gc-message (short option -g).

printNl is a programmer-oriented printing message. To print without quotes use display/displayNl. Similarly, characters will be printed without dollar signs.
