Definetly yesssssssss I use the launcher all the time , I love it, And why macos only, works on windows like a charm too. No problem on Linux either. Frankly pharo is the first language I use that comes with an installer like this. Definetly this need to be promoted out there. It also shows the power of images and why we love them.
I have not run into any kinda a bug with it apart from 1. When the servers were down instead of saying "sorry cant found the servers" it kept trying and trying to download in an infinite loops and I had to force quit it. I see no reason why PharoLauncher could be integrated inside pharo. I have to say though I would love for someone to fix the update process too, the whole deal of dowloading the latest release and then installing from scratch all my third party libraries is killing my inner child. Probably I should make a configuration of my setup, but still, I would love to click "update" and automagically get updated to latest version.
