I just started using Pharo on windows for the first time. First, I should say that I'm really impressed. Pharo seems much more solid than when I last tried it. I programmed all day without getting a walkback! All of the tools "just worked". Well done! It's a lot of work creating a solid user experience, but you have done it. Now I have some Windows-specific questions. I'm a real windows newbi, so please be patient. After I downloaded Pharo.app, I dragged the whole directory to a convenient place, and tried to launch the Pharo.lnk file, just like the readme file says. But there is no such file visible in windows explorer (even though I have "don't show extensions for known file types" box unchecked. The file shows up as Pharo. Anyway, I figured that it was really Pharo.lnk (Cygwin tells the truth) and double-clicked on it. This brings up an alert that says C:\Users\<username>\Desktop\OneClick.app\Contents\Windows\Squeak.exe the specified path does not exist. Is this because I moved the downloaded package? Shouldn't the symlink be relative? Anyway, I looked in ...\ Contents\Windows\, double-clicked on Squeak.exe, and everything started up just fine. I worked all day, and saved my image a few times using the Save menu on the desktop. Each time, I get the usual confirmatory dialog in the Transcript. Overnight, my machine shut down. Today, I relaunch Squeak.exe, and of course I get the virgin image! Where is the image that I've been using? The Windows "search this computer" tool can't find it! What about my package cache? Eventually I find everything in Pharo.app\Contents\Resources, but not until I've had a few moments of panic! Questions: Is this the appropriate behaviour on Windows, or was there a user error on my part? Is it OK to move my image somewhere else? How can I change the current directory for Pharo on Windows? OK, so now that I've found my image file, how to I re-launch it? I double-clicked on the .image file, and I got a dialog saying that Windows didn't know what program to use to open it. Fair enough. So I told it to use Squeak.exe. Pharo launches, and I get: "Error: invalid utf8 input detected". It's treating the image as if it were a source file: it has opened a MultiByteFileSTream on it. That's not right. How do I re-launch my Pharo image? Andrew
