Given the fact that I am a Pharo n00b it wouldn't be an easy way to go I guess. There is Scamper for Squeak, https://github.com/HPI-SWA-Teaching/Scamper > It used to come standard in Squeak.

Would you be so kind to point me to some docs about this? May I conclude that *maybe* "tODE" and "the tools needed to talk to WebKit" are the best ways to achieve my goal(s)? But, between the lines I read that it would be a rough way (for me at least), which would be a bit too rough for me as aa Pharo n00b. In C# I can do this literally in a few hours, given the fact that ready made components exist. So, maybe I'd better stick with that for this project and try my hands on a bit easier and smaller Pharo projects :-) Anyway, I really appreciate the help! Many thx! /Arie
