GSDock-0.0.1 The source and OS X binary are available at http://www.sf.net/projects/gsdock Features: *Looks like the OpenStep Dock but behaves somewhat like the OS X Dock (A hybrid) *Accepts dragged applications *Accepts dragged documents and tiles highlight if the app accepts the document *Tiles resize as they are added. you can put as many tiles into the dock as you wish *Recycler *Apps animate as they are launched *Cross compiles to Cocoa/OS X *Context sensitive menus (oh noo!!!!) on tiles. Known issues: When compiled in GNUstep: *Mouse dragginng events have wrong positions, possible a WMaker issue. *Launching apps will not animate. *AppIcon tiles will still appear on bottom of screen. *It actually works much better in Cocoa than in GNUstep at the present. When compiled in Cocoa: *Some apps are not reported by NSworkspace as being apps. These apps will not be swallowed by the dock. *Dock will grow and place itself under the menu bar. *Dock will show itself over full screen applications/windows. When compiled in GNUstep or Cocoa: *No known method to update the AppIcon when the App changes it. *As tiles shrink the icons can look jagged. *No known method to ask other apps to hide or terminate themselves. *Recycler is not yet implemented. *Dock is stuck on right hand side of screen. Cannot be moved at the present. *Still has a main menu. *Will hide if asked, just like it was a regular app.
