Introduction

|
============
|
|
|
|
Equinox Desktop Environment or EDE is small desktop environment,
|
|
built to be simple and fast.
|
|
|
|
It is based on concept of separated components, so each of them can
|
|
be built, installed and used independently. Of course, full power
|
|
of each component comes when they are combined together due many reasons
|
|
like communication protocol between each of them.
|
|
|
|
One of the main goals for EDE is to make desktop environment simple
|
|
for usage and as much as possible productive. So, when you start it,
|
|
it is already assumed you know 'where things are'. This is accomplished
|
|
with familliar look and feel, without needs to learn 'how to start some application'
|
|
or how to shutdown environment or computer.
|
|
|
|
It is based on http://www.fltk.org[FLTK] GUI library with addition of our
|
|
'edelib' library.
|
|
|
|
EDE also tries to be http://freedesktop.org[freedesktop.org] friendly
|
|
following proposed standards; this allows easier integration with other
|
|
desktop environments, or their components (counting those that follows
|
|
freedesktop.org specifications).
