1 Announcement ************** This is version 0.28.0 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. 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, Independent JPEG Group's libjpeg library, and a back-end component from the GNUstep 'Back' library. Additional functionality may be enabled by installing additional libraries. For example, to build the Cairo backend in the GNUstep Back library, you will need to install Cairo. 1.2 Noteworthy changes in version '0.28.0' ========================================== This version adds support for modern XIB files and many new classes. Plus the usual bunch of bug fixes. * Support loading of document XIB files. * Improve Key Value Binding for NSArrayController and add more bindings. * Better support for multi monitor usage and other improvement in the backend integration. * Add classes NSFontCollection, NSColorSampler, NSSpeechRecognizer, NSAppearance, NSPDFInfo, NSPICTImageRep, NSCIImageRep, NSPDFImageRep, NSPDFPanel, NSDataAsset, NSDatePicker, NSDatePickerCell, NSPredicateEditor, NSPredicateEditorRowTemplate, NSRuleEditor, NSGestureRecognizer, NSButtonTouchBarItem, NSCandidateListTouchBarItem, NSClickGestureRecognizer, NSColorPickerTouchBarItem, NSCustomTouchBarItem, NSGroupTouchBarItem, NSMagnificationGestureRecognizer, NSPanGestureRecognizer, NSPickerTouchBarItem, NSPopoverTouchBarItem, NSPressGestureRecognizer, NSRotationGestureRecognizer, NSSharingServicePickerTouchBarItem, NSSliderTouchBarItem, NSStepperTouchBarItem, NSTouchBarItem, NSTouchBar, NSTouch, NSDockTile. * Implement NSEPSImageRep. * Better encoding handling in RTF files. * Theming and drawing improvements. * Increase small font size to 10. * New cursor and stepper images. * Move NSFileWrapper to Foundation. * Fixed build on Debian GNU/kFreeBSD. * With command line argument -autolaunch YES, do not activate the application when -activateIgnoringOtherApps: is invoked. * Improvements to WindowMaker compatibility (e.g. WMFHideApplication support). * Lowered NSFloatingWindowLevel by one to distinguish floating panels from menus. 1.3 Where can you get it? How can you compile it? ================================================= The gnustep-gui-0.28.0.tar.gz distribution file has been placed at <ftp://ftp.gnustep.org/pub/gnustep/core>.
