i think we should use "open" from the Backbone project, that is the success=
or
of openapp. and put it in /usr/bin

evan, i don't mind, either you or me (or together with co-maintainging) we
use backbone cvs snapshots and generate four packages:
backbone-open, backbone-terminal, backbone-textedit, backbone-preferences
if you want we can also call them .app (but not the open tool, what will th=
em be called? (package name)). i would still prefer call it what they are c=
alled upstream, i.e terminal. or rather termanal textedid etc...=20

real gnustep people seem to use / as their root and ahve /System, /Volumes =
...
as defined in the standard doc of linuxstep....=20

splitting and cluttering a gnustep.app/ package across the file system is
seriously wrong and against gnustep (openstep,nextstep) philosophy and idea.
there must be a way to follow the specifications and standards for GNUstep.
users will be fucked when you give them something that is not GNUstep and y=
ou
call it GNUstep. if you really want to distribute the files across the file=
system do so BUT DO NOT CALL THAT GNUSTEP!

i recommend people source GNUstep.sh in /etc/profiles. if people do this,
do the gnustep-make wrappers scripts still work? i recall having had proble=
ms
with this. eric/doko can you check this?

some of my gnustep packages have wrapper scripts in /usr/bin or /usr/games
some do not. the mass bug filing sucked. one mail for one message would hav=
e been enough.=20

cheers,
