so yes… UFFI is included in Pharo5, and the “official” replacement for NB. Now, NB had a lot of things that do not fit to what NB was (most of them were there originally as examples but they became alive…) the functionality you are looking for should be provided now by the package OSWindows (by Torsten).
Torsten is working very hard to update his frameworks to Pharo 5.0 (Thanks!)… this is good because he has tons of things windows-oriented and that works as test bed for the new UFFI :) Anyway… this was not finished but we made a pass today and now tests are green. If you can wait until tomorrow, most probably everything will be ready to use… if you really need to use it: http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~TorstenBergmann/NOS (Notice that this repository is temporal until work is accepted and it merges back to official OSWindows repository). … and you need bleedingEdge of UFFI version to get it fully working :) cheers!
