Comme on dit extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Pis mettons que extraordinary evidence c’est pas ce qu’on a vu jusqu’à maintenant.

First, thanks for working on Pharo, what an amazing environment.

I am not a lawyer so you should double check.

For GPL, indeed the image as a whole would be GPL. If the personal project is more of an “executable”, it might be what you are looking for, any further image modification would have to be released under the GPL as well.

If the project is more of a “library”, you might or might not prefer the LGPL. In this case I feel like https://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl-java.en.html would apply similarly to Java. As long as you can load the image and change the original library code, other code is not restricted on the license.

No problem, I definitely made that mistake multiple times before

Only guessing here, it might be related to the fact that your shell init file is loaded in the terminal. So env vars such as PATH might be different if starting from your shell or your app launcher.

I've been using exclusively ERC for a while now, it works great.

Happy to see the user options for browsing Lemmy expanding. Are you planning to open source it or is this a closed-source commercial product?

Didn't try it but it looks like they also provide an installable offline version under the AGPL: https://github.com/ONLYOFFICE/DesktopEditors

There are other ways to structure and edit programs than just a bunch of source files that we manually edit through a text editor. For instance image files as in Smalltalk. I don't see any reason why a visual representation couldn't succeed in this regard. The issue, imo, is that text is really nice to work with, and it would require a very nice visual editing experience to beat the text based tools we have today.
