I appeared to get a valid download, but something isn't right. Is the idea to download, unzip (MS seems to make this flakier with every update???), and then launch Pharo.exe? Are there separate image and change files? I do not see them, just a LOT of folders/files that are giving my Java flashbacks.
MS people invented term of 'installing software' , while in most cases it can be done by simply copying files. And one of the results of such 'invention' that now people simply can't make simplest things like unpacking acrhive to choosen folder and run the program by themselves - they think in a terms of 'icon on desktop' or 'icon in the launch menu'.. A progress. What i can say.
From this POV, the distribution is still far away from the 'one-click', because , in my vision, a single click should be in browser, and after this click you should have everything up and running on your PC. :)
My assumption was that this is a prepared image with Polymorph and TT loaded, and on seeing the structure, I figured it was a Sophie-like distribution. Are my expectations skewed? Please let me know if I am missing something. Otherwise, I will try this again later.
