the Application project template in ProjectCenter contains both a
.gorm file and .gsmarkup files. The GNUmakefile includes all of these

I needed to edit in order to design my application. After some testing
(on Linux, I haven't tested on Mac) I found that the .gorm file was
being used by the built app, but the .gsmarkup files do not seem to
be. I tested this by editing the title of a main menu item in each
then building the app: only when I edited the menu in the .gorm file
did my changes appear.
I will fix this template up so that it only contains one UI
definition. My preference would be to keep the .gorm file, but would
the maintainers prefer people use GORM or GSMarkup? Or is there a
reason I've missed why the project template would include both?
If it were for me, I would just throw away the GSMarkup file - but it is
me, being biased for Gorm files.
Since I am only the "de facto" maintainer of PC and that officially it
is more or less community maintained, I resisted throwing away the
GSMarkup, although it has always bothered me too.
To make a clean solution, one would need different templates or choose
the style of GUI app, but I guess this is a bigger task and back then
who added this feature just choose to throw in everything in the template.
We could remove it now to be added back on request later with a cleaner
option, being honest and knowing that it will perhaps never happen or
happen in years to come :) :)
