I am running Linux with lots of GNUstep applications. After quite a while I just checked Emacs.app again to see whether it is usable for daily use. I checked both the latest CVS trunk and version 23.1. Both were simply unusable. When starting the program I get lots of error messages to stdout (I temporarily renamed my .emacs to make sure this did not cause any errors), things like these:
2010-03-21 14:46:53.342 Emacs[4532] FTC_Manager_LookupSize() failed for 'Gulim-Regular', error 00000001! 2010-03-21 14:46:53.342 Emacs[4532] Error when loading '/var/lib/defoma/gnustep-nfont.d/Fonts/Gulim.nfont/../../../../../../usr/share/fonts/truetype/baekmuk/gulim.ttf' (00000001) and: *** Warning: font in family 'Nimbus Mono L' not found *** Warning: font in family 'Nimbus Mono L' not found OK, these are simply fonts which cannot be loaded (though I ask myself why they are obviously hard-coded in the application). Now when the main window appears, the minibuffer cannot be separated from the main window (the grey status bar is invisible). When I open just any file I will get "Wrong type argument: stringp, nil" and the file is not even loaded (I still have *scratch*). Just curious: is the project dead? Or is GNUstep no longer supported? I must admit that I am a bit disappointed to find this application that I once liked so much in this state...
