# post-install optionnal steps
#
To take advantage of all the features from the GNUstep framework, you
should add the following lines to your ~/.xsession or ~/.xinitrc:
. ${TRUEPREFIX}/share/GNUstep/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh # (from gnustep-make)
${TRUEPREFIX}/bin/gdnc # notifications daemon (from gnustep-base)
${TRUEPREFIX}/bin/gpbs # clipboard/pasteboard daemon (from gnustep-back)
${TRUEPREFIX}/bin/make_services # update service cache (from gnustep-gui)
To enable gdomap(8), the distributed objects lookup daemon (from
gnustep-base), add the following lines to services(5):
gdomap 538/tcp # GNUstep distrib objects
gdomap 538/udp # GNUstep distrib objects
Then see rc(8) to have "${TRUEPREFIX}/bin/gdomap -p" launched at boot time.
For more Information regarding the GNUstep services see their respective
manual pages: GNUstep(7), gdnc(1), gpbs(1), make_services(1), gdomap(8)
#
# running applications
#
While opening GNUstep applications using their complete path is possible
(i.e. ${TRUEPREFIX}/libexec/GNUstep/ApplicationName.app/ApplicationName),
you're advised to use the "openapp" wrapper to do so.
For instance, to start the Calculator application, you would use:
${TRUEPREFIX}/bin/openapp Calculator
According to your display, you may find the fonts to be too large/small
for your taste.
To change the default fonts size ("9"), use the following command:
${TRUEPREFIX}/bin/defaults write NSGlobalDomain NSFontSize <fontsize>
#
# debugging tools and applications
#
In case you do not want stripped libraries and binaries, you have to
remove the -s flag from the definition of INSTALL_PROGRAM in the
${TRUEPREFIX}/share/GNUstep/Makefiles/config.make file.
