DESKTOP(1)

NAME
Desktop - GNUstep Workspace Manager Desktop

SYNOPSIS
openapp Desktop

DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the GNUstep Desktop application. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

Desktop is designed to work in conjunction with GWorkspace, the official GNUstep workspace manager.
Desktop provides functionality to make the root window inter-operate with GWorkspace. It provides a Dock which allows applications to be launched as well as a recycle bin. Files and folders can be placed on the desktop which can then be operated on. Double-clicking the file opens the file with the default application. Right-clicking presents a choice of applications that the file can be opened with. Alternatively, files can be dragged onto the application icons in the Dock for the application to open the file. There is a graphical preferences dialogue, which can be invoked from the menu system: Info --> Preferences.

OPTIONS
There are no options.

FILES
$HOME/Desktop
    This directory contains the user's desktop.

BUGS
This is a work in progress, and there may be bugs.
