GNUstep Live CD

2017-09-01T16:41:10Z

Alexm: /* Supported architectures */

There are several efforts to create Live CDs of GNUstep

==GNUSTEP live CD==
of Alex Myczko, [http://www.aiei.ch/gnustep/ Version 2.5] released on July 25, 2017

===Supported architectures===
* i686
* AMD64
* PowerPC
* UltraSPARC
* ARM (Raspberry Pi)
(all with multiple CPUs)

===Minimal Requirements===
* 128 MB Memory
* CD-ROM drive or USB slot where you can boot from

===Notes===
I think a lot of the bugs listed below are caused by GNUstep and WindowMaker, and not the Live CD itself. The reason I say this is because I experience some of these issues with my GNUstep installation, and most times I build it from scratch from SVN or stable releases.

====Bugs====

* Some windows (for instance in DBModeler.app) can't be accessed since the title bar is off-screen (a seasoned GNUstepper knows how to fix this but what about the newbies?) (This happens with most GNUstep apps, and should be fixed in GNUstep/Gorm)
: gdl2 doesn't build anymore with the latest gnustep tarball release!

Bugs reported by Fred Kiefer:

* There were no colour schemas predefined.
: Can you provide the schemas and tell where they get on the filesystem?
:: There's some under the Modules/ColorSchemes directory of SystemPreferences in svn. I'm not 100% sure, but I think they go under $GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT/Library/Colors.
:::Is it possible that these are not installed? Where should I find those if I have /usr/lib/GNUstep as GNUstep root?
:::: As far as I know, there's no SystemPreferences package under Debian, which might be why you can't find it. For some reason Debian packages Preferences (the Backbone program) and not SystemPreferences (the GNUstep program). SystemPreferences seems to do a little more than Preferences as it's development is active, and I'm not sure if Backbone is. In my opinion, the only Backbone program worth using is Terminal.app, because Ink can replace TextEdit and SystemPreferences can replace Preferences.
::::: I really like the tool "open". TextEdit has several features more that Ink doesn't have. Does Ink handle RTFD, Font ligatures and kerning, Preferences?
::::: SystemPreferences doesn't build/work for me! And backbone is actively developped!

===Feature Requests===
* it should be obvious how to install GNUstep on HD from within the Live CD (ideally by employing a GUI based wizard)
: I've got a text file on how to do it, what about you write an installer?
:: Can you mail me that file? How much is the effort needed to build such an installer (roundabout)?
::: Feel free to put it up on a server some where, cause I'd be interested too! If the procedures aren't too intensive, it could probably be done by FOSDEM with sh scripts.

:The file is online and linked at the Installing as install.txt

===Future===
Future versions are planned, help is welcome and needed that gnustep-make,base,gui,back in Debian packages are updated to the latest tarball releases.
It's about time for a new version... work has started. I'd like to have Emacs.app, Chess.app, and TextEdit.app updated... feedback and discussion, preferably on the official #gnustep irc channel.

When publishing on a news site, author of an article has to pick "the right language". That is, he has to speak to target audience, use references to things that the audience already knows, target needs of audience etc. Therefore for each news site there should be slightly different article with same message in it.

If you add a site to this list, please shortly specify the audience of the site, so others know how to write articles there.

GNUstep Live CD

2017-07-25T17:04:55Z

Alexm: /* GNUSTEP live CD */

There are several efforts to create Live CDs of GNUstep

==GNUSTEP live CD==
of Alex Myczko, [http://www.aiei.ch/gnustep/ Version 2.5] released on July 25, 2017

===Supported architectures===
* i686
* AMD64
* PowerPC
* UltraSPARC
(all with multiple CPUs)

===Minimal Requirements===
* 128 MB Memory
* CD-ROM drive or USB slot where you can boot from

===Notes===
I think a lot of the bugs listed below are caused by GNUstep and WindowMaker, and not the Live CD itself. The reason I say this is because I experience some of these issues with my GNUstep installation, and most times I build it from scratch from SVN or stable releases.

====Bugs====

* Some windows (for instance in DBModeler.app) can't be accessed since the title bar is off-screen (a seasoned GNUstepper knows how to fix this but what about the newbies?) (This happens with most GNUstep apps, and should be fixed in GNUstep/Gorm)
: gdl2 doesn't build anymore with the latest gnustep tarball release!

Bugs reported by Fred Kiefer:

* There were no colour schemas predefined.
: Can you provide the schemas and tell where they get on the filesystem?
:: There's some under the Modules/ColorSchemes directory of SystemPreferences in svn. I'm not 100% sure, but I think they go under $GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT/Library/Colors.
:::Is it possible that these are not installed? Where should I find those if I have /usr/lib/GNUstep as GNUstep root?
:::: As far as I know, there's no SystemPreferences package under Debian, which might be why you can't find it. For some reason Debian packages Preferences (the Backbone program) and not SystemPreferences (the GNUstep program). SystemPreferences seems to do a little more than Preferences as it's development is active, and I'm not sure if Backbone is. In my opinion, the only Backbone program worth using is Terminal.app, because Ink can replace TextEdit and SystemPreferences can replace Preferences.
::::: I really like the tool "open". TextEdit has several features more that Ink doesn't have. Does Ink handle RTFD, Font ligatures and kerning, Preferences?
::::: SystemPreferences doesn't build/work for me! And backbone is actively developped!

===Feature Requests===
* it should be obvious how to install GNUstep on HD from within the Live CD (ideally by employing a GUI based wizard)
: I've got a text file on how to do it, what about you write an installer?
:: Can you mail me that file? How much is the effort needed to build such an installer (roundabout)?
::: Feel free to put it up on a server some where, cause I'd be interested too! If the procedures aren't too intensive, it could probably be done by FOSDEM with sh scripts.

:The file is online and linked at the Installing as install.txt

===Future===
Future versions are planned, help is welcome and needed that gnustep-make,base,gui,back in Debian packages are updated to the latest tarball releases.
It's about time for a new version... work has started. I'd like to have Emacs.app, Chess.app, and TextEdit.app updated... feedback and discussion, preferably on the official #gnustep irc channel.

::: Feel free to put it up on a server some where, cause I'd be interested too! If the procedures aren't too intensive, it could probably be done by FOSDEM with sh scripts.

:The file is online and linked at the Installing as install.txt

===Future===

Alexm: update date/version

{{Application|
shortdescription = Gorm (''Graphical Object Relationship Modeller'') is meant to be the counter part to NeXT's [[Interface Builder]]. With Gorm designing tough and complex graphical interfaces for your applications can easy and quickly be done using drag & drop, powerful inspectors and teamwork with [[ProjectCenter]]. |

currentversion = [ftp://ftp.gnustep.org/pub/gnustep/dev-apps/gorm-1.2.23.tar.gz 1.2.23] |

releasedate = July 2016 |

license = GPL 3.0 |

overview = Before NeXT Computer Inc. revolutionized software developement with its OpenStep API, a new way of designing graphical user interfaces was already introduced by NeXT at the beginning of the 90s. Its operating system NeXTstep featured Interface Builder, an application that for the first time allowed developers to quickly create nice user interfaces without having to code everything manually. Using drag & drop elements of windows such as buttons, sliders, textfields etc. were created and edited, then linked to functions and variables. Thus, Interface Builder helped developers to focus on the code for the actual functions without having to care about stuff not related to their project goal.

Gorm allows developers to quickly create and edit graphical application interfaces using a whole lot of GUI elements: windows, menus, buttons, labels, sliders, tables, textfields, browsers, images, altert panels and more. Custom palettes can be dynamically loaded to add additional elements or functionality. |

features = Currently Gorm gets extended with new elements and inspectors to get every common GUI object included in the standard palettes. Doing this is relatively easy now as all the inspectors are now created using Gorm itself.
:'''Please Note'''
:The recently added NIB compatibility is for 10.2.x and later nibs. Older typed stream nibs will need to be converted to 10.2.x nibs for use in Gorm. Older nibs will contain objects.nib, while newer ones will have keyedobjects.nib. If you have access to a Mac, the you can convert them. Please load them into InterfaceBuilder and save them again and they should convert. |
