Hi Thierry, I am really looking for a "low-tech" solution here - five line Monticello code snippet - that will be easy for me to understand (as a newbie) and also easy for new contributors to my project to understand (who will have no prior exposure to Pharo.)
I don't know what AltBrowser is, but just as a user I need to get a bit more "winnage" before I am ready to take another iteration at learning more tools. The tools currently represent barriers in the way of solving my problems. I am sure this will change over time with more gradual learning and experience.
