NAME

       gnustep-config - prints information about the current gnustep installation.

SYNOPSIS

       gnustep-config [ --variable=variable |--objc-flags|--objc-libs|--base-libs|--gui-libs ]

DESCRIPTION

       gnustep-config  can  print  information about the currently installed GNUstep system. Output is generated
       dynamically based on environment variables such  as  GNUSTEP_CONFIG_FILE  and  GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES,  though
       default  values  for  these are generated when the tool is configured/installed.  Output is primarily the
       locations in which various GNUstep resources  are  installed,  but  also  provide  flags  used  to  build
       different types of GNUstep project.
