Index NAME
gdnc - GNUstep Distributed Notification Center
SYNOPSIS
gdnc DESCRIPTION
The gdnc daemon is used by GNUstep programs to send notifications and messages to one another. By default it uses private inter-processcommunications accessible only to the curtrent user on the machine onwhich it is running (where the operating system supports them).Every user needs to have his own instance of
gdncrunning. While
gdncwill be started automatically as soon as it is needed,it is recommended to start
gdncin a personal login script like ~/.bashrc or ~/.cshrc.Alternatively (if you have no command-line tools which use distributednotifications) you can launch gdnc when your windowing system or thewindow manager is started. For example, on systems with X11 you can launch
gdncfrom your .xinitrc script or alternatively- if you are running Window Maker - put it in Window Maker's autostart script.See the
GNUstep Build Guidefor a sample startup script.
