Hello,

we are getting ready for release.
please take a minute to review:

Quick feedback on Pharo linux/x86_64 on Ubuntu 16.04/64b.

I feel the Welcome page should point to HelpBrowser open instead of referring pharo.org because Pharo has a built-in help browser but not a WWW browser. The very first page should not lead to people to switch to a different app for help. Using help keeps people within the env and also leads them to learn how to create tutorials etc.

In Welcome/changelog/second item, Epicea is misspelled as Epica. Same doc, suggest renaming section heading for consistency - s/Tools/Tools related/ and s/Network/Network related/

"Learn Pharo Smalltalk" and "Explore Pharo Environment" dups references to books. The former could be merged into the latter to drive home the point that language and env are tightly coupled.

Also, merge "More Documentation" into "Getting help" and keep all web references together.

I can send in a pull request for these changes if it helps.

I tried to run:
  $ ./pharo-vm/pharo --nodisplay pharo-vm/shared/Pharo*.image eval 3+4

and got a usage error. The problem is that the pharo-vm/pharo script does not take into account option arguments and has other issues too. This works:

 $ ./pharo/bin/pharo --nodisplay pharo-vm/shared/Pharo*.image eval 3+4

HTH .. Subbu
