GUI keyword confusion
- by richzilla
Ive been using linux for some time, and ive never quite got my head around the various keywords attached to the GUI.
I think i understand the difference between the likes of KDE and Gnome - They are collections of applications and other software that make up a given gui environment. However a quick read through any vaguely technical linux websites will reveal terms like:
Murrine
Clearlooks
GTK
Beryl
Metacity
Window manager
Which if im honest, i have no real idea what they mean and how they all relate to each other. Can anybody clarify?
