[launcher] to manage StartupLoader scripts

Just an off the cuff idea...  it might be useful if PharoLauncher helped
manage/edit the StartupLoader scripts.
Any thoughts?

I agree the startup scripts are not too hard (I'm using them) - but they they tend to be set & forget, and sometimes I forget exactly where they fit in the file structure and have to go hunting for them.  The complete newbie might not even know they exist.  I am really thinking only of a text editor for those files - nothing more - but referenced from within the one tool for managing Pharo images. 

The simplest first thing might be just having a button in Preferences which opened the appropriate system folder outside of Pharo - similar to how "Show in folder" works for images.

This is what I discussed with Damien. I imagined download the latest Pharo 3 image and have PharoLauncher automagically install my libraries to it. 

However on the other hand I decided not to work with it because Damien shown me how Startup scripts work and because its easy to create a Configuration as I already have to install all the libraries I need in each image with 3 lines of code. So its not such a big deal for me, but good idea none the less.

You can expriment on this if you want. If the user has no script yet, you can propose to create a default one.
