Yes. I think that DVCS wise, developers imagination has been monopolized by Git/GitHub. There are powerful simple little tools out there that are practically outside of the developers' radar. Let's see what happens in the Fossil + Pharo integration front. >> These days are particularly slow in Colombia, but I will post advances >> as soon as I have something. > Thank you. > > Btw, I looked at Grafoscopio and it is interesting you had been looking > or using tools like Leo editor, Pollen - I also considered Skribilo > (Guile) - since I am also searching some toolchain to improve web > publishing (paper output is not problem with LateX or ConTeXt) , but > still haven't decided what to use/learn since learning Racket/Pharo > requires some extra time until it can pay off (I want to stay focused > on my writing and studying and not turn myself into programmer)...for > now I'm still using Emacs/markdown-mode although in the past I spent > time with both Aѕciidoc(tor) and rst markups. I looked also at Skribilo in my search for more powerful tools for interactive writing and documentation, and Emacs/OrgMode (see [1]). I really liked the Racket approach of a meta programming tool for making Domain Specific Languages (like the ones used for documentation). But in the development front I think that Pharo/Smalltalk is hardly beaten by anything, more if you're thinking not only in publishing (web, mobile or print) but also in agile data visualization (see [2]). In that regard becoming a coder was a valuable deviation from my research and study that paid huge reward later in those fronts also.

It seems that good times are coming. Cheers, Offray
