thanks for the nice comments. 
yes, I�m working on making it something better that a hack (I will probably finish it next week). Then, we think on including it in a future update on Pharo 3.
now� it will be available, but I do not think it will be the default theme. But it will be there for choosing it. Also, I think theme it-self still need some care, let me know your findings and I will fix it as soon as possible :)

for programatically, I have added a fonts.st fonts to the autoconfiguration of pharo

StartupLoader default executeAtomicItems: {
StartupAction 
name: 'Fonts 3.0'
code: [
| pointSize fontName codeFontName |

FreeTypeSystemSettings loadFt2Library: true.
FreeTypeFontProvider current updateFromSystem.

pointSize := 10.
fontName := 'Source Sans Pro'.
codeFontName := 'Source Code Pro'. 
StandardFonts
setAllStandardFontsTo: (LogicalFont familyName: fontName pointSize: pointSize);
haloFont: (LogicalFont familyName: fontName pointSize: pointSize - 1);
balloonFont: (LogicalFont familyName: fontName pointSize: pointSize - 1);
windowTitleFont: (LogicalFont familyName: fontName pointSize: pointSize + 1);
listFont: (LogicalFont familyName: fontName pointSize: pointSize);
menuFont: (LogicalFont familyName: fontName pointSize: pointSize);
codeFont: (LogicalFont familyName: codeFontName pointSize: pointSize) 
]
runOnce: true.
}.

this is usually in: 

OSX:  ~/Library/Preferences/pharo/3.0
Linux: ~/.config/pharo/3.0 (I�m not sure, but somewhere there)
Windows: no idea :) 

cheers, 
Esteban

Hi,

I have been using the new Pharo 3 Dark Theme since it was announced on May 1st. In my specific case, I am using the FreeType fonts Open Sans Regular 11 and Source Code Pro Regular 11 on a MacBookAir, both on the 13 inch 1440x900 built in screen and on a 23 inch 1920x1024 external monitor.

Every day there is a moment that I think: this looks so nice, this is so pleasant to use. Really Esteban, I don't know how you did it, but the color palette is really well chosen, plain beautiful. Let's make this either a permanent part of Pharo or an easy to load extension, real soon.

I want to say thanks too.

I'm using it since day one, it's easier for my eyes.

And even got somebody attention, who asked me what I was using...

I vote to make it permanent.

Regards!

ps: I'm using the default "DejaVu" fonts, how do you set the TTF font
programatically?

I do it in the settings... and export them; However, when I rebuilt an image, I need to execute:

FreeTypeFontProvider current updateFromSystem

For the settings to apply.
