Zach Frey's GNOME Resources

This is mostly a way to organize my bookmarks right now. Maybe someday I'll actually have some content here.

Resources:

• The GNOME project home page.
• The GNOME Office:
  • Dia, a drawing program intended to be similar to Visio.
  • Gnumeric is an Excel-compatible spreadsheet. Except with cooler featuers. And it's free.
  • The GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) is an image editor comparable to Adobe's PhotoShop. There is a Windows port and a FAQ.
• Resources for GNOME developers.
• The page for Eric Harlow's book, Developing Linux Applications with GTK+ and GLIB. Not exactly GNOME, but GTK+ is a requirement for GNOME programming.
• The page for Havoc Pennington's book, GTK+/GNOME Application Development.
• The page for GNOME/GTK+ Programming Bible.
• Paul Barnfather has a most excellent page on building GNOME on Solaris.
• Raph Levien's Installing Type1 fonts for Gnome-Print
• GNOME at Sun
• ZD-Net article on Marco Boerries of Sun (formerly StarDivision).
• GnomeCAD, an attempt to make a free GNOME-based CAD program. Is this active? It's hard to tell, not many updates to the web page lately. A related commercial venture seems to be Varkon.
• From MFC to GTK: A Developer's Journey
• Where Jacob puts the Helix GNOME SRPMs
• Miguel's (in)famous Let's Make Unix Not Suck paper on why Unix needs a component architecture.
• Dirk-Jan Binnema's tutorial, On Writing A Bonobo Control.
• Global Technologies Ltd.'s port of GNOME to Windows (using U/WIN).
• Devout is a VBA utility to export Outlook 2000 email to Evolution mbox format.
