+GNUstep is a free, object-oriented, cross-platform development environment
+that strives for simplicity and elegance. GNUstep is based on and completely
+compatible with the OpenStep specification developed by NeXT (now Apple
+Computer Inc.) as well as implementing the extensions added by Apple in the
+form of Cocoa.
+
+The GNUstep Startup package combines all four core packages (Make, Base,
+GUI and Backend), plus ffcall.
+
+This is the message after compiling from source, because the files
+are then put in a package you will miss it:

+Installation Finished

+
+Now run the GNUstep initialization script (put this in your
+.bashrc or other type of startup script). Note the '.' at the
+beginning of the line.
+. /opt/gnustep/System/Library/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh
+
+Now you can install some applications and start using GNUstep
+Look for a few applications in the AppSources directory. The
+typical way to install an application is:
+ tar -zxf MyApplication.tar.gz
+ cd MyApplication
+ make
+ make install (as root, unless GNUstep is in your home dir)
+
+Then start the application:
+ openapp MyApplication.app
