Lars,
One of the problems with doing this is that the applications
themselves are not even OpenStep. They are NeXTSTEP applications and
would, thus, need to be converted to OpenStep before a port to GNUstep
could even be attempted.
It would probably be easier to write our own apps for these things
than to try to do this.
