Gui Developement Tools for Linux
================================
Introduction (English)
----------------------
In the first days, Linux was said to be a hacker envirement in
both sense. With the further developement its reputation changed.
Today Linux gets known as a developement plattform including the X
window system and the several GNU utilities. Following the fact
that GNU C and C++ are pseudo standard serveral developement tools
has been built to support a quicker and easier X programming.
This GUI-Developement-HOWTO should help the programmer, beginner
or experienced, to choose the tool, which fits most his
requirements.
I take no responsibility for mistakes in prices or copyrights.
Please read the including copyright license!
If you know further Gui Developement Tools please send me a short
notice.

Einfuehrung (Deutsch)
---------------------
In den ersten Tagen, hatte Linux den Ruf einer Hackerumgebung. Mit
den Monaten der Entwicklung aenderte sich dieser schlechte Ruf.
Heute wird Linux mit dem X Window System zusammen als
Entwicklungsystem gepriesen, auf dem viele Entwicklungstools
erhaeltlich sind. Neben den zahlreichen GNU Utilities, die sich in
den letzten Jahren, vor allem in der From des GNU C und C++
Compilers, zu einer Art pseudo Standard entwickelt haben,
entstanden mehr oder weniger bekannte Entwicklungsoberflaechen.
Das GUI-Developement-HOWTO soll dem angehenden, wie auch dem
erfahrenen Programmierer die Auswahl fuer eine geeignete
Entwicklungsoberflaeche erleichtern.
Ich uebernehme keine Verantwortung fuer etwelche Fehler in den
Punkten Copyright und Preise. Lies die oftmals beiliegende

neue Tools bin ich allen dankbar.
