Cool, thanks for the information.
Also, your "riding a bike" analogy is quite good. :)
Let's see how it goes for me.
Best,

if you throw also PBE I think you pretty much covered.
OO is not really a difficult concept, an object is just a collection
of variables and methods and then it builds complexity from there. But
if you already so familiar with Squeak that should come as riding a
bike, you cant forget these things. So I am sure you will remember it
quickly when you try your your own experiments.
By the way welcome to Pharo and keep us posted with your progress .
Peronally I love Squeak is hands down the most elegant GUI system I
have used, but I use Pharo because its more actively developed and
better in the things that interest me.

Welcome to the Smalltalk world..
You would have already seen:
http://pharo.org/documentation [1] in particular:
http://pharobyexample.org/ [2]
In Pharo Start with the Pharo Tutorials through ( Left Click on the
World, Help >> Pharo Tutorials )
Watch the screencasts.. in the documentation page..
Probably relevant will be Web application development with Seaside
framework in Pharo Smalltalk:
http://book.seaside.st/book [3]
Rest will fall into place once you sink yourself in, and ask
questions relevant to where you are wanting to head to..

A hello to Pharo-Users list members.
I am Mayuresh Kathe from Mumbai, India.
I used to work with Squeak a while (14 years) back, but ever
since I had to move over to non-OOP environments, and never did
get to work with Smalltalk or alike systems ever since.
To add to that, I haven't been programming for over 7 years due
to being pushed into the management track.
I have quit the management world, and along with it a regular
job.
Am now a consultant, mostly to Web startups which leaves me with
a lot of spare time to tinker around with what I would really like
to.
After a lot of searching and experimenting, I finally landed in
Pharo land, and things look good. :)
Given the fact that I haven't written a single fully functional
program in 7 years, I feel like I've lost the ability to code,
sort-a rusty.
Would the list members be kind enough to suggest a book I could
work through to warm myself up to OOP?
I stumbled upon "The Object Oriented Thought Process" by Matt
Weisfeld, looks good, but if there's anything better suited to
Pharo, would be nice to know.
Thanks,
~Mayuresh
