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. +</longdescription> +</pkgmetadata> |
