Thanks Mariano! The brief description of the different browsers was helpful. Because of your mentioning of the term "O2", I managed to find the O2 repository (http://www.squeaksource.com/O2) and load the latest version using Gofer new squeaksource: 'MetacelloRepository'; package: 'ConfigurationOfO2'; load. (Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfO2) perform: #loadDefault David Roethlisberger made some changes on April 13 2011 that seems to make it work with Pharo (after I fixed the #MNU of the Preferences class). There are still some things missing like the Mercury Panel and some possible incompatibilities with Pharo-1.2 but at least it loads. I'll try to fix those problems and update it to work with Pharo-1.2.
