||
**************
|
||
|
||
This is version 0.31.0 of the GNUstep GUI Backend (‘gnustep-back’).
|
||
|
||
1.1 What is the GNUstep GUI Backend?
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
It is a back-end component for the GNUstep GUI Library. The
|
||
implementation of the GNUstep GUI Library is designed in two parts. The
|
||
first part is the front-end component which is independent of platform
|
||
and display system. This front-end is combined with a back-end
|
||
component which handles all of the display system dependent such as
|
||
specific calls to the X Window System. This design allows the GNUstep
|
||
applications to have the "look and feel" of the underlying display
|
||
system without any changes to the application, and the library can be
|
||
easily ported to other display systems.
|
||
|
||
The GNUstep GUI Backend is for platforms using the X-Window System or
|
||
Window’s Systems. It works via a DPS emulation engine to emulate the
|
||
DPS functions required by the front-end system.
|
||
|
||
1.2 Noteworthy changes in version ‘0.31.0’
|
||
==========================================
|
||
|
||
The release includes mostly improvements for pasteboard handling and a
|
||
few bug fixes.

||

||
• Improve font name creation.

||
• Add headless backend.

||

|
||
|
||
