NAME¶
GWorkspace - GNUstep Workspace Manager
SYNOPSIS¶
GWorkspace
DESCRIPTION¶
This manual page documents briefly the
GWorkspace GNUstep application.
This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original
program does not have a manual page.
GWorkspace is the official GNUstep workspace manager. It is a clone of
NeXT's workspace manager.
GWorkspace is probably one of the most useful and usable workspace
managers available on any platform, owing to its well-designed interface and
the natural, consistent design that it inherits from the GNUstep framework.
The first time you run
GWorkspace you must set some preferences:
GWorkspace needs a default editor to work. It can also be an app-wrapper.
To set your editor, open the preferences window and choose "Default
Editor" from the pop-up, then click on the "choose" button:
from an open-panel you will be able to browse your directories and choose the
editor.
GWorkspace lets you open a terminal on the current directory (alt-t). To
set your preferred terminal (the default is "xterm"), choose
"XTerminal" from the pop-up.
MODULES¶
Besides its standard Contents Inspectors, that is, App, Folder, Image, Sound,
Pdf-Ps, Rtf, text, Plist, Strings and Inspector viewers,
GWorkspace can
dynamically load other modules which you can build separately. It is
sufficient to put them in a place where
GWorkspace looks for them, for
example: ~/GNUstep/Library/GWorkspace.
In the same way you can add other viewers besides the standard Browser, Icon and
Small Icons viewers. If you want to write a new inspector or a new viewer,
take a look in the Template directory.
LANGUAGES¶
GWorkspace speaks English, French, German, Italian and Romanian.
