Hello Could you possible add the following text with correct docbook formatting to the FreeBSD Handbook section 5.7 Desktop Environments: (Note: The binary package doesn't yet exist, but probably should be created soonish. The following ports already exists: http://io.ethz.ch/~tar/freebsd/gnustep/ports.txt (the last five are going to be processed)) GNUstep About GNUstep GNUstep is a cross-platform, object-oriented framework for desktop application development. Based on the OpenStep specification originally created by NeXT (now Apple), GNUstep enables developers to rapidly build sophisticated software by employing a large library of reusable software components. GNUstep is used in production environments at several organizations. Installing GNUstep A binary package for GNUstep exists (at the time of writing). To install, simply type: # pkg_add -r gnustep Alternatively, to build from source, use the ports collection: # cd /usr/ports/devel/gnustep # make install clean Now, tell the X server to launch GNUstep the next time X is started. Simply type this: % echo "exec wmaker" > ~/.xinitrc Now, whenever the X Window System is invoked with startx, GNUstep will be the desktop. Anti-aliased Fonts with GNUstep % defaults write NSGlobalDomain GSBackend libgnustep-art Yours, Guerkan
