Re: GNUstep on Mac OS X and Win98

[Stefan Böhringer]

It could be added that another option is using a X server on Windows.
Then GNUstep could use the xgps backend on windows also. This is of
course also only a provisional solution, which would not let
applications integrate seemlessly into the windows environment. Also
nobody seems to have tried this configuration.

Best wishes, Stefan
