My ultimate goal (has been for a long time) is to build a low cost, computing system which can be as deeply programmable as possible.
At the moment, my goal is to not only learn and start contributing back to Pharo, but also make progress in making it as reachable and accessible to learners as possible. For the same, I have been thinking along the lines of being able to bundle a Linux based Pharo system as a Rasberry Pi image. Well, that's all, I guess... :) ~Mayuresh On Fri, Sep 19, 2014 at 09:23:44AM -0700, Alexandre Bergel wrote: > Just wondering: what are your initial requirements that make you define this > project? > > Cheers, > Alexandre > > > On Sep 19, 2014, at 9:18 AM, Mayuresh Kathe <mayur...@kathe.in> wrote: > > > Hello, > > > > While I am still waiting for my copy of the PBE, I would like to > > initiate work on a project (along with friends). > > > > The idea is to build a minimalist Linux based system which would boot up > > straight into a full-screen Pharo environment. > > > > The system itself would be single user, consisting of not more than a > > Linux kernel, a few system utilities (busybox?), X (KDrive?) and Pharo > > (vm + image + ...). > > > > Would like to know if it's some how possible to control external > > programs from within Pharo, essentially shell scripts for network setup, > > etc. > > > > Thanks, > > > > ~Mayuresh > > > > > > -- > _,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;: > Alexandre Bergel http://www.bergel.eu > ^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;. > > > >
