Hi,

Could anyone comment on the GNUstep filesystem layout. How the layout is 
different from platform to platform, how to change the default layout, and how 
to detect the layout in code. Furthermore is there a more 'flat' (MacOSX-eqsue) 
layout that can be easily chosen instead of having all those /GNUstep 
directories all over the place (as I have experienced with some distributions)?
GNUstep already install s "flattened" by default. Disable the terrible FHS layout (--with-layout=gnustep something which should have remained our default) and you essentially have a quite traditional layout. You may want then to do --prefix=/ and that is my standard configuration. Everything goes into /System and /Local (and/or /Network) except the /etc/GNUstep configuration which you can leave there or separately configure. prefix just adds a /usr/GNUstep which can be useful to put into /usr/local or /opt
