[ANN] Embedding Image Example (Win)

Hi,
I have produced an example of using the headless VM to have an
embedded image in Windows. The example is hosted in Github
(https://github.com/tesonep/pharo-vm-embedded-example)

The example is a CMake project to generate a new small executable that
uses the VM as a library. Also, it shows how to perform the branding
of applications (I have used the same Pharo icon, but we can use
anything else).

In the example, I am opening one of the SDL2 examples, it opens a
window where we can draw in an Athens Canvas.

It requires a Cygwin environment, but if you are able to build the
headless VM you already have it!.

I will do other examples of the use case we are thinking for the headless VM!

Cheers,
Pablo

Thanks Pablo. This will be cool to try sometime, and likely useful if I want to distribute an app.

Now what woudl be great is an example something like embedding the VM within a simple REPL written in C.

or something like a simple Pong game where the main loop is in C and does the rendering,

but the game logic run in Pharo.

this is really nice.

This is with such nice example that people will be able to build App with Pharo.

Thanks Pablo I like C code with nice comments :).
