I recommend using Renaissance. You can also use GSHBox/GSVBox/GSTable as included in gnustep-gui, but while you get the functionality, it's cumbersome to use - you have to build all the UI in code. Renaissance brings it a further step forward, where you specify the UI you want to build using a simple xml format, and everything - including i18n - is done automatically for you. If you want to write samples / tutorials, please do - we never have enough :-) _______________________________________________ Help-gnustep mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnustep
