How about GCode :)
Personally I was very happy when interface builder finally was
integrated into Xcode. It made building iOS apps so much easier,
faster and more convenient.
Think the Unix way. And the Next-step way continues that to the GUI
paradigm. One tool for a task and make them cooperate well together.
That way, you can use only one tool if you need one, or replace one tool
in the chain! Apple disregards that and errs, in my humble opinion.
If I develop command-line tools, I don't need Gorm at a..
If I click on a Gorm file from PC, voilà it opens on PC! But I can also
open it from the Workspace or even from the console.
I actually find it extremely convenient that in GS i can build and work
from the console, selectively open files.
I haven't really tried Gorm yet but reusing code from PC and Gorm to
make GCode sounds like a good idea :)
I mean absolutely no disrespect to PC or Gorm but if we are to attract
new developers more easily I think GCode is necessary (perhaps
together with an GNUstep desktop distribution). An Xcode like editor
so that people from iOS/OSX can start developing using GNUstep and
find it intuitive and easy to use. Am I the only one who think this?
I like the current setup though! I don't think we should copy Apple's
decision even in the user-interface and application look choices? It may
attract new users, of course... but perhaps make others unhappy. The
solution of course would be to have more than one IDE, possibly reusing
components, but that means an additional development and maintenance
burden. Several different
I dislike the quality of our current tools, the bugs and the missing
features. But I like the freedom they give, I love for example that I
can very easily set-up a project with PC, but then while debugging and
coding, just use a terminal with "make" and Emacs.
