You will also face serious fun with Freetype fonts.

Hi all,

I saw that there are a few issues about images saved on an operating system not working when opened on other operating systems:

I gave the fix in case��19869 a try and with it I can save an image on windows and open it on mac, however, there are some side effects.

First several folders having the following name are created in the image folder:

'\Users\andrei\test-image'

'\Users\andrei\test-image\pharo-local\'

'\Users\andrei\test-image\pharo-local\ombu-sessions'

Second, I can only open the image on man once. The second time I get the following stack:

[31mPrimitiveFailed: primitive #createDirectory: in WindowsStore failed

[0mWindowsStore(Object)>>primitiveFailed:

WindowsStore(Object)>>primitiveFailed

WindowsStore(DiskStore)>>createDirectory:

So it seems that��OmSessionStore is not reset and holds a reference to a the windows path which it tries to create.

Cheers,
