I don't know if my "Atlas" library could be of assistance here. Atlas will allow you to use python and python libraries from inside pharo via a socket bridge. I am very noob when it comes to terminal but I hear that python is very popular for command line stuff especially on linux and macos where it comes included. So if you run Atlas from headless pharo it should work and give you access to full power of python, but there are a few stuff I need to add to it. Of course the disadvantage here is that you still need to know python and its libraries.��

What are you using to do jobs on the commandline. I'm sick of doing bash and sed,perl,jq,... stuff.

Me too. I dream about editing my pharo script in Pharo, deploying them from pharo and debugging
them if necessary.

�� What would be the quickest start when using a normal image?

passing a code snippet via the command line as described in the zeroconf chapter.

�� And what if I want to give coral a start. Does it work in 3.0? Best place to load stuff from?

I agree with you.
Damien C made a lot of changes to make sure that we can run the image on readonly folder. Because you want to
have a image in /usr/bin/ whatever and load your scripts.

About coral I think that starting to use it is worth. Right you can launch scripts and even define
classes. To me coral is orthogonal to the scripts.

I was thinking that we would have a much better support for OSProcess (via NB).
To me this is the most important point. Better OS integration. Having an alternate syntax for methods is secondary or less priority.
