What is Native on Windows

From GNUstepWiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The idea of 'native' on MS-Windows is for GNUstep applications to be viewed favourably against other applications on that platform and to conform to standards and expectations.

Some specific goals here are:

  • Horizontal, in-window menus
  • Controls which look like Windows and which behave like Windows
  • Applications launch quickly and seamlessly.
  • Proper file system support
  • Correct Taskbar & window behaviour

Lower priority items include:

  • Support all Win32 input methods
  • Accessibility support
