Hi Nicolas,
Thank you very much for your kind welcome. Although it should be very easy,
I'm still not sure how to get the moose image (I downloaded it) into pharo.
should something like:
$ pharo moose.image
... work? Or:
$ pharo -vm moose.image
... ?
I can't find pharo's command line options, although I read the faq and
googled a lot. How do I tell it to load the image?
Then, how can I 'test' that effective

Hi Haroldo,
welcome to the mailling list and the Moose world.
The simplest way to get Moose would be to download it pre-loaded in an
image.
You can do this from
http://www.moosetechnology.org/, there is a button
to get the latest image.
I you feel like it, later, you could drop a note to say what you were
looking for moose in the first place and how you feel about it.
It's always nice to have impressions from new members
thanks, cheers.

hi!
I'm totally new to smalltalk, although I've heard of it since a lot of
time ago.
In my arch linux installation, I've found some dificulties running
squeak, so I went into pharo once I've discovered they are two free
implementations of smalltalk.
Then I wondered myself, How can I do now to put moose into here ? And
then I saw that by selecting the proper text in one of the default windows
that pharo opens for me, I could have moose (and other subsystems)
installed in the image I'm workin on. So I did.
I've found myself pretty impressed at the ease by which the subsystems
get installed. I started installing one of the web development systems, and
I got thru the whole automated process without any problems.
Then I evaluated the code that installs moose. It started running, and
run a lot without a problem too. But at some point, some missing methods
poped up a window in which I'm asked what to do. At the firsts of them, I
put 'proceed' (because I wouldn't abandon, nor debug because I woudn't
know
what to do), and it proceeded. At some later pop up errors, I was offered a
fourth option namely 'create', I did, and put the method I was asked to put
somewhere in systembase or some similar name (I can be more precise if
needed or asked to), then a code that showed a 'to be implemented' dummy
method or something, and then again, asked to proceed, and and did this
process a number of times, until I realized that there were many of them,
and I abadoned. And went here, asking for some kind help of you.
I could insist with squeak if that would do better, or go Cuis
alternatively (but from what I've read, maybe Cuis would not fit).
I've also read that pharo support from moose is in some development
phase. Is that true? So if I'm a beginner I should try it until it's ready.
I'm interested in moose mainly, and derived from this, in smalltalk and
in any of its free versions if they work.
Any hint is welcome.
cheers
Haroldo
