Description

The GNUstep Base library implements the Foundation portion of the OpenStep specification, jointly developed by NeXT and Sun. It aims to provide compatibility with extensions added by Apple's implementation of this standard: Cocoa. The Foundation framework provides the standard library for Objective-C, including collections, operating system interfaces, and so on.
