When I said "without GNOME installed," I meant without the entire GNOME desktop environment installed: nautilus, gnome-session, metacity, etc. > With GNUstep, it seemed to me that it was not intended to run > applications without the Desktop environment.

The TextEdit program seemed to work fine, just as Epiphany of Evolution might, without the entire GNOME desktop environment installed. > Comparable to WindowMaker Dock applications, which probably will not > run under any other windowmanager.
