If it's font related then the Exupery VMs also have a patched bitlbt for
subpixel antialiasing. The true type code uses that to make fonts look a
bit nicer.

Besides that the Exupery VMs should be very close to Squeak VMs
(ignoring version differences) except for a few changes to allow them to
run native code instead of interpreting.

Thank you Bryce for infos.��

How can I build an Exupery VM ?��

I think we should clean the linux download section of pharo website to have:
- generated src (32 and 64 bits) so people can build an "official" vm with configure / make / make install. ��Very helpful for packagers too.
- a clean pre-built version for the one-click image.

Which VM should we propose ? Squeak or Exupery ? ��(And note we can have more choice on the wiki for "power users". I think we should put only one VM download on pharo website).

Cheers,

Laurent
