I'm not sure what value you might gain from it, but it may be
interesting to review...

(FreeBSD is better to review at since its license is more permissive than Linux)

Back when I was using Pharo on Windows, I was involved in some
discussions regarding the semantics of working directories.  These
weren't brought to a conclusion and remain open questions...

FileSystem on Windows should maintain per drive current working directory

Finally some grammar feedback...

where you say...
   Implementation:
   buffer:= String new:100.

better might be...
   Usage:
   buffer:= String new:100.
