gwcc/README

General Information
-------------------
Welcome to GWCC. This program is designed to be an easy-to-use, feature rich
interface to your Unix-based operating system. I dont know about you, but
i perform the same operations over-and-over day-after-day, and the command
line provided via a terminal window ceases to be very useful once you want
to start doing something with the information - like saving or printing it.

In addition to having to know all the flags for all the commands you want to
use, you also have to scroll up-and-down the terminal window to retrace your
steps and to cut-and-paste (what was that IP address again?).

So, i hope you will find my GTK/GNOME-based point-and-click application of
some use in your daily computing activities.  Please feel free to write to me
with any suggestions you may have (see Contacting The Author below).


Installation
------------
See the file 'INSTALL' for instructions. (They're really easy!)


Requirements
------------
- A Unix-based operating system with X-Windows.
- An ANSI C compiler (e.g., gcc will work just fine).
- A working version of GNOME installed on your system (see www.gnome.org).
- A *stable* version of GTK correctly installed. If you do not have GTK, you
  can get it at http://www.gtk.org.


Features
--------
- Complete preferences system (no need to edit any config files, or know flags)
- GNOME support (session management, dialogs, menus, etc.)
- LibGLADE support
- Saving and Printing of all output!
- Highly configurable command flags and program behaviour.
