OPENSTEP is the app framework that was arguably the core of NeXT's IP. It
was available for Windows NT, Mach (which made essentially NEXTSTEP 4),
Solaris, and unobtainably HP-UX.
Gnustep is the project that was trying to replicate OPENSTEP in a
gnu-friendly way. It has a loooong way to go, still.
At one point Digital licensed NeXT technologies (just as IBM did) but
never delivered anything.
ok
r.
First I've heard of it. It primarily ran on
NeXT hardware (of course), x86
systems, and had limited support for HP and Sparc. I've *never* heard VMS
mentioned as having any sort of an OPENSTEP environment.
We are talking about OpenSTEP, right? Not NeXTSTEP? There has
been a port of OpenSTEP to XFree86 for long and long.
