I guess I just realize my mistake. No, I never take GWorkspace in a
picture of the desktop environment when I was talking about it. Honestly I don't
really use GWorkspace. I don't use any file browser. I prefered bash.
Even if Rio and/or Quentin wrote a super file browser that is 100 times
better than GWorkspace I wouldn't use it. I was just trying to silence
the thread that discussing theme support in GNUstep which I thought
it was quite misleading from the actual subject. My desktop environment
is about preferences, global namespace and such. Not a file browser.
Something like how to be able to allow file browser to open a URI
like preferences:Themes and can load the bundle that has the theme
preferences view directly in GWorkspace for example.
Sorry for any misunderstanding I made here, Enrico. Please don't
leave the project :(
