This is a very demoralizing thread ...

For example, take a look at Smalltalk-78, brought back to life a few years
ago by Dan Ingalls, Bert Freudenberg, Ted Kaehler, myself, et al from a disk
pack thrown on the trash by Xerox.

Part of the motivation, besides the fun of it, was to make a tribute video
for Ted Nelson's "Intertwingled" in 2015.

I did all the visuals -- which included "slides", dynamics, live coding,
etc. -- in Smalltalk-78. I used the Dorado screen format

This was also historically interesting because it was Smalltalk-78 that
Steve Jobs saw in his famous visit to Parc the next year in 1979.

(So what is the big problem with doing something better than PPT in Pharo?)

And, in fact, it is also quite demoralizing to have to use this !@#$%
non-WYSIWYG horrible web editor to make this comment ....

Cheers

Alan
