Doc, I think
maybe you're confusing OpenStep with
OpenWindows (OpenLook), Nope. I've used OpenWindows, hate it, would
rather run twm
if that's
the only choice. I may be completely out of my head, and as of this
Heh. I'm running out of "OpenStuff" :)
morning I can't even find the stack of old source
archives.
If it's on
tape I'm gonna cry "Uncle".
I don't suppose you might have seen the Mach version of OpenStep
running on Intel hardware? This would look pretty similar to a "linux"
if you were using a command-line shell.

I've fooled with GNUSTEP myself, with the same
results you got.
WindowMaker is a great WM, but I begin to doubt that GNUSTEP will ever
get any closer than that to a full-blown environment. Gnome
& KDE have
pulled all the focus and resources away.
That's a shame, since the NeXT environment is much nicer. :) Of course,
OpenStep on its own would still leave the problem of using X11 for
delivery of all graphics, which from what I've seen is nowhere near as
nice as the NeXT window system, but still it would have been a step in
the right direction.
