Is the referenced Win64 VM+GTK the best option ? #16

Ok, maybe I broke it myself, by just copying (but not overwriting existing files) into the dir where PharoLauncher downloads the VM (11, x64).

That sorta worked, but some symbol was not found in some DLL (and every update of VM would've deleted the GTK).

Then I remembered that I had an x64 Gtk3 installer (slightly less messy than copying it out from MSYS2 yourself).

I fired it up, let it add the dir into PATH, and et-voila, gtk-bindings & spec-gtk work with the default P11/x64 VM managed by PharoLauncher.

the binaries I used are from: https://github.com/tschoonj/GTK-for-Windows-Runtime-Environment-Installer/releases (used the last version from 2022).

Perhaps combo of stock VM + system-wide GTK3 install could also be recommended in README ? Or does the default VM lack something vital ?
