@section What is the GNUstep Base Library?
|
|
|
|
The GNUstep Base Library is a library of general-purpose, non-graphical
|
|
Objective C objects. For example, it includes classes for strings,
|
|
object collections, byte streams, typed coders, invocations,
|
|
notifications, notification dispatchers, moments in time, network ports,
|
|
remote object messaging support (distributed objects), and event loops.
|
|
|
|
It provides functionality that aims to implement the non-graphical
|
|
portion of the OpenStep standard (the Foundation library).
|
|
|
|
There is more information available at the GNUstep homepage

|
PGP signature which you can validate by putting both files in the same
|
|
directory and using:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
gpg --verify gnustep-base-@value{GNUSTEP-BASE-VERSION}.tar.gz.sig
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Signature has been created using the key with the following fingerprint:
