A desktop GUI for *nix-like systems. Available through ports, it is fairly light-weight (i.e., it's not very resource-intensive like KDE or gnome) and very configurable. Somewhat similar in looks to the AfterStep environment. Because it closely resembles the look and feel of venerable NeXT/OpenStep, it is GNUstep's window manager of choice.
