At some point you may well find packages distributed as ’GNUstep’ systems in the way that you get ’GNU/Linux’ systems packaged today. Look at Simply GNUstep <a href="http://simplygnustep.sourceforge.net/">http://simplygnustep.sourceforge.net/</a> for instance. </p> <p>If you want to see a sample GUI application running you need to build GNUstep and look at the example applications in the gnustep-examples package. Build ’Finger’ or ’Ink’ and start it with ’openapp Finger.app’ or ’openapp Ink.app’ </p> <p>To look best, use WindowMaker (the currently preferred GNUstep window manager) as your window manager. </p> </body> </html>
