The GPE Palmtop Environment aims to provide a Free Software GUI environm=
entfor palmtop/handheld computers running the GNU/Linux=99 operating syste=
m. GPE uses the X Window S= ystem[1], and the GTK+ widget toolkit[2].=
GPE is not a single piece of software, but an entire environment of comp=
onents which make it possible to use your GNU/Linux handheld for standard t=
asks such as Personal Information Management (PIM). GPE makes it easy for d=
evelopers to create powerful programs, by giving them the infrastructure th=
ey need.
Besides providing core software such as shared libraries, and perhaps mo= re
importantly, the GPE environment fixes standards for program interaction= ,
such as SQL, XML, and other data schemas.
GPE is committed to the Open Sour= ce[3] idea. All GPE core components are
released under GNU[4] = licenses[5], applications using the GPL[6] and
sharedlibraries using the LGPL[7]. Those allow for the most free usability =
of the GPE system.
