Both really interesting posts. Now...Some people reported that the Exupery Linux VM has "nicer" fonts than the standard VM, even if both use true type.
Then Bryce Kampjes said in the mailing list:
"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."
Do you know how that can be included ?

Great !
Can we merge our respective posts and put this on the Pharo wiki ?
I don't have write access to the wiki.
Do you know if there's an equivalent tutorial for windows ?
I will try with the svn trunk.

Nice! I just did the same the other day ;)
My blog post describes step by step how to build a Unix VM from scratch on OSX:
http://www.adrian-lienhard.ch/blog?article=building-a-pharo-squeak-vm-from-first-principles
Please note that you are using the 3.11.3.*2135* sources, which produce a VM with terrible performance. The reason is that they don't have the gnuification step that creates a jump table instead of the case switch for the interpreter loop. I use the most recent source from SVN (r2151) and the bytecodes/s is 479400749 compared to 248543689.
Cheers,
Adrian
