Hi,
I'm interested in giving this a try, if no one else has already
started. I'm beginning to get the hang of Gorm, and have been reading
a Cocoa book ("Cocoa programming") suggested on the etoile blog.
Oh, one thing I found with StepChat is, with the art or xlib gnustep
backends, I had to change ANIMATE_WINDOW to NO in RosterController.m
to prevent the main window from getting distorted. (I assume it works
okay if you use cairo? The cairo backend doesn't work on my laptop for
some reason.)
Regards,
Eric
