Well on my system (GNUstep on Mac OS X with X11), the compilation  
fails, I get the following output :

appDelegate.m:417:20: missing terminating " character
appDelegate.m:418:71: missing terminating " character
appDelegate.m:421:1: unterminated argument list invoking macro  
"NSMESSAGE"
appDelegate.m: In function `-[appDelegate aboutApp:]':
appDelegate.m:417: error: `NSMESSAGE' undeclared (first use in this  
function)
appDelegate.m:417: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only  
once
appDelegate.m:417: error: for each function it appears in.)
appDelegate.m:417: error: parse error at end of input
appDelegate.m:0: warning: array `_OBJC_SELECTOR_TABLE' assumed to have  
one element
make[1]: *** [shared_obj/appDelegate.o] Error 1
make: *** [GTAMSAnalyzer.all.app.variables] Error 2

And it would be cool also that your application can be just named TAMS  
Analyser and not GTAMSAnalyser, no need to add 'G' just because you  
have ported it on another platform, it's still the same application  
whatever the platform is (use a different versions scheme/number if the  
features/development states are different across the platforms). This  
"G" or "GS" prefix habit is a bit ridiculous. Other applications like  
Illustrator which works across platforms like Win, Mac etc. have a  
unique name without tweaks like WIllustrator or WinIllustrator just  
because it's Illustrator for Windows.

Otherwise, it's nice to see another application ported to GNUstep.  
Thanks for that and good luck.

Quentin.
