Would it be ok if this was configurable via a user preference, meaning pharo supported both?
sure.
A VisualWorks multiple-native-window capability would open up the possibility of creating a different class of applications. Â Alot of my work revolves around integration with legacy systems. Â Having a smalltalk with multiple native windows would allow me to more seamlessly introduce it into the world of tools at my company.
I really think that if somebody would work on ffenestria we would integrate it.
Do you remember, i started it. Still i don't released anything. But the idea is to move all windowing code into a new plugin , which will have an inherent support of controlling native windows (& events) from image side.
thanks sw

I used Visualworks and Squeak, and frankly, I prefer to have embedded morphic windows in a unique native window, as it is now in Pharo. Application switching is easier in my opinion and I do not feel a need to have an email clients between two code browsers. As the discussion on save and quit testified, people have radically different habits when programming. Even for simple things. Interesting.
Cheers, Alexandre

If the primitives existed in pharo that would allow someone to create and control native windows, I would be more than happy to take the time to try and massage morphic into working cleanly/ elegantly with multiple windows.

Newspeak uses either native or morphic windows, depending on the wishes of the user.
