isn't GNU Smalltalk a emacs Smalltalk? maybe making a migration path from GNU to Pharo could be good? On Fri, Dec 8, 2017 at 1:33 PM, Kjell Godo <squeaklist@gmail.com> wrote:
if Pharo could have a emacs version or face or something that would advertise more functions that you can get from the Pharo version or maybe link the two versions Pharo and emacsVimPharo so there is like a migration path to Pharo or they could work together that could be lower the barrier to entry i saw emacs vim guy who could also hate to learning something new

Done. Class #Hello is now #Greeter in package "HelloDemo".
I presume we're good to go, then?

May be the class name could be changed a little bit to allow more flexibility using the Pharo Quick Start as a base. Something like "Greeter" and "Greeter new say: 'Hello world!'" or "Greeter new sayIt" could be implemented from there. Nice to see more and more documentation around Pharo, including this one.
That being said, I have always felt that hello world is kind of a strange introduction to programming:

I've revised the draft slightly for the comments given here: https://medium.com/@richardeng/pharo-quick-start-5bab70944ce2
Yes, it's a definite improvement. Thanks.

Excellent work, Richard!
May I offer the small criticism against using #initialize for the method name? I think a name like #sayIt (for example) and invocation like "Hello new sayIt" would make it explicit.
This will be a great help for people who drop by out of curiosity.

I've completed the first draft of my Pharo Quick Start guide <https://medium.com/@richardeng/pharo-quick-start-5bab709 44ce2> . I decided to forge ahead anyway.
Feedback welcome.
Note that I chose wget instead of curl because many Linux distros do not have curl installed.
I've tested the guide for various Linux distros including Mint 18.3 (Ubuntu-based), Debian 9.2.1, Manjaro 17.0.6 (Arch-based), Solus 3, and Fedora 27. So it should be good for all the popular distros (Top 10).
