Cédrick,

Look at the bright side: people let you use Smalltalk :)  IMHO, you might not 
need to worry too much about deployment.  I know much more about that in 
Dolphin than Squeak/Pharo, but I think the details of it get far too much 
attention in general.  What OS?  In Windows and Linux/Gnome, I just create 
shortcuts that load an image for Pharo, and it works fine.  Just name the VM 
and the image to load, and user sees it as any other piece of software.

The trick in Pharo is to save an image in the state appropriate for the end 
user.  There are other far better qualified to help you over that bump.

Happy Smalltalking!

Bill

actually, I did only 2 weeks of Perl and I'm back to Pharo since... :)

Thanks to smalltalk, the very good point is I've nearly finished
something that is due in june !!! (I mean minus the 20% that takes
most of the time plus all the fancy stuffs I'd like to do around
diagrams).

I think I did the main skeleton in a week :) (it a planer prototype)
whereas my supervisor asked me for a class diagram... I just did in st
and used OB to draw the diagram... and two days later it was nearly
working :)   I think that's just impossible in another language (with
the same developer ;) ).

2 bad points though...

- people let me do it but nobody even look at the code :(
- don't know yet how to deploy ... Here I'd really like a micro
image... I might do with Pavel image or even think to use gnu-st...
Last solution is to port in perl mainly for people to maintain it if I
leave. Still don't know but I'll come back with question when
necessary...

See you,

Cédrick
