Hi, I consider that survey is closed... I can see there are as many as Gnome users than KDE users. Most of people claimed better integration. I had this in mind for a long wh= ile but I never begun the work. The reason: 2 environments (KDE & Gnome). I= t's difficult to support both environment. Some companies (Novell) support = Gnome, some others support KDE. Personally, it's annoying ! I can understand you should have the choice but= a desktop user shouldn't have it. Sorry. I begun with KDE few years ago but it was too heavy. After, I switched to W= indowMaker with GTK apps. I never used Gnome. Now, Gnome is becoming slow a= nd KDE faster. Moreover, KDE has more and more apps. I'm preferring KDE and it may become my environment... I have chosen GTK because this toolkit was available to Windows for free. B= ut, there are no direct Mac support. KDE toolkit seem to be very powerful although it's use some specific extens= ions (moc). It's available for many platform but it was not free (except fo= r Linux) until now. In fact, I found this article on ./ (http://books.slashdot.org/books/04/01/= 28/1749200.shtml?tid=3D126&tid=3D156&tid=3D185&tid=3D188&tid=3D192) <<The book comes with a CD that contains non-commercial version of Qt 3.2 f= or Windows/Mac/Linux, >> It seems that a TiLP written in KDE will be portable and will have the righ= t look&feel. Moreover, GTK2 is very slow in a Win32 environment. As you may understand, I'm really considering this opportunity ! roms. ---=20 Romain Li=E9vin =20 Site web =20 Messagerie instantan=E9e (ICQ) 43585029=20 "Linux, y'a moins bien mais c'est plus cher !" |
