After reading this line:

> Pharo is a pure object-oriented programming language and a powerful environment, focused on simplicity and immediate feedback.

and seeing the initial screenshot on the announcement, I thought that this was a joke post. How you can call this "focused on simplicity" while showing that horrific hodge podge of a screen shot is beyond me.

Thanks for your feedback. Maybe it would be better to show the three tools in separate screen shots rather than overlapping.

One aspect of simplicity is its minimal syntax... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Pharo_syntax_postcard.svg

That's a pretty chaotic postcard. I think I get the point that it's trying to make, but at first glance it doesn't exactly convey the idea of simplicity.

Keep in mind that seems to be the entire syntax. Doesn't look chaotic to me, and I'm not even a Pharo (or Smalltalk) user!

[ben-coman]

correct. that is the entire syntax.
