This is version 0.24.1 of the GNUstep GUI library (`gnustep-gui'). 1.1 What is the GNUstep GUI Library? ====================================
It is a library of graphical user interface classes written completely in the Objective-C language; the classes are based upon Apple's Cocoa framework (which came from the OpenStep specification as release by NeXT Software, Inc). The library has been enhanced in a number of ways to take advantage of the GNU system. These classes include graphical objects such as buttons, text fields, popup lists, browser lists, and windows; there are also many associated classes for handling events, colors, fonts, pasteboards and images. The GNUstep GUI Library is designed in two parts. The first part is the front-end component which is independent of platform and display system. This front-end is combined with a back-end component which handles all of the display system dependent such as specific calls to X/Windows. This design allows the GNUstep applications to have the "look and feel" of the underlying display system without any changes to the application, and the library can be easily ported to other display systems. The GNUstep GUI Library requires the GNU Objective-C compiler, the GNUstep Base Library, the TIFF Graphics library, and a back-end component like the GNUstep 'Back' Backend. 1.2 Noteworthy changes in version `0.24.1' ========================================== >From a look through ChangeLog, we can see a lot of bugfixes for this release, with the main focus on avoiding display glitches and improving OSX compatibility. 1.3 Where can you get it?
