The problem is not so much that Pharo has not shortcuts for everything, or
that shortcuts are tricky to make or modify. The problem is that Pharo is a
very complex environment, more complex than emacs and vim. It's very easy
to create messy shortcut setups like emacs and vim.

Saying that yes sure it's possible but I do suspect that most Pharo devs
are like me, love shortcuts but using mouse is just simpler. Hence why
Pharo is no emacs/vim , thank God :D

But probably it will require for you to customize and create new shortcuts.
After all emacs and vim users use their own personal shortcuts tailor made
for their needs.
