UI has been revamped to increase > usability, especially for newcomers. The main window is now composed of a > toolbar and the list of images.

You can contribute easily > by clicking the *edit on GitHub* button. > You can now have many launch configurations for an image (VM to use, vm and > image arguments). It means you can use headless Pharo VM from Pharo Launcher. > When creating a new image, you can specify an initialisation script that will > be run once at the first image launch. It is useful to load your project code > in a stock Pharo image for example.
