Nice to see some progress on that front.
I checked a bit and just a remark: pay attention to the coherent of word
uppercasing in titles.
A quick tour of Pharo
vs.
A Quick tout of Pharo.
In PBE we do not use uppercase in title except for names.
I read fast the QuickTour and fix them all.
Also use '' '' for italic. Because this is nice to have stress in the text.
Keep pushing.

So I have finished the second chapter , but, there is a sub section
about Squeaksource which I don't think many people use anymore , will
you keep this as it is ? Cause I was thinking maybe deleting that part
and talk instead about Smalltalkhub.
For the time being I have ported Squeaksource part as it is.

I am moving to Chapter 2 now, which for some strange reason I
skipped.

In section 1.9 page 18 there is this text
"At other times you may have a good idea that a method
exists, but will have no idea what it might be called.
The method finder can still help! For example, suppose
that you would like to find a method that turns a string
into upper case, for example, it would translate 'eureka'
into 'EUREKA'.
The method finder will suggest a method that does what
you want.8
An asterisk at the beginning of a line in the right pane
of the method finder indicates that this method is the
one that was actually used to obtain the requested
result. So, the asterisk in front of String asUppercase
lets us know that the method asUppercase defined on the
class String was executed and returned the result we
wanted. The methods that do not have an asterisk are just
the other methods that have the same name as the ones
that returned the expected result. So
Character»asUppercase was not executed on our example,
because 'eureka' is not a Character object.
You can also use the method finder for methods with
arguments; for example, if you are looking for a method
that will find the greatest common factor of two
integers, you might try 25. 35. 5 as an example. You can
also give the method finder multiple examples to narrow
the search space; the help text in the bottom pane
explains how. "
I tried " 'eureka' . 'EUREKA '" and the other suggestion
it does not seem to work , should I remove this section ?
It works for me...
* World > Tools > Finder
* Type... 'eureka' . 'EUREKA'
* Change [Selectors] to [Examples]
