Hola John Paul Adrian Glaubitz! > Unlike previously mentioned in this discussion, these applications aren't fully > desktop-agnostic as they are written in GTK and the Mint people admit that > themselves. I don't think this is a fair assessment. There are several desktops that are based on the GTK libraries. A GTK application that uses the library but does not use any desktop specific libraries / extensions / etc, can be considered desktop agnostic for any of the GTK desktops. I'm in the camp of people that dislike the new gedit and I would welcome a maintained text editor that uses GTK but is not linked against mate or cinnamon or xfce or any other GTK desktop. I have not looked in detail into these new applications, but in general I think that the idea sounds like a good one and I don't think it's fair to dismiss them as desktop-agnostic because they use the GTK library. -- Regards, Marga
