+## <a name="_TOPIC_"> %TOPIC% </a>
+
+The [[GnuSkin]] plugin is a rip off from the [[TigerSkinPlugin]]. The main intentions are to simplify the design enough to get a basic and yet useful environment suitable for production use by [GNU](http://www.gnu.org/) projects.
+
+See it in action on the Hurd Wiki web at vmlinux.org, <http://vmlinux.org/twiki/bin/view/Hurd/WebHome>.
+
+**_Primary goals include:_**
+
+Issues the current release, v1.0, will address.
+
+* Basic skin compatible with most browsers: Mozilla 4.xx-6.xx, Lynx, W3M, Links, (X)Emacs/W3 and maybe even Internet Explorer.
+* Looks, "skin deep" design � la [The Hurd](http://hurd.gnu.org) web pages.
+* User configurable everything, as far as possible. Therefore the TigerSkin's WebMenu parser is integrated.
+
+**_Secondary goals:_**
+
+These design goals will go into the v2.0 series of the Gnuskin.
+
+* Quicker.
+* Lesser files.
+* Smaller.
+* Extended configurability - Edit **all** of the webmenu, change topmenu, etc.
+
+## <a name="Syntax_Rules"> Syntax Rules </a>
+
+* See the TigerSkin's WebMenu for example.
+* More to to come...

+This is the [[TWiki/GnuSkin]] plugin. It's designed to more like a general [GNU](http://www.gnu.org) web page and less like the [[TWiki/TigerSkinPlugin]].
+
+Lean &amp; simple and yet still good looking and stylish. The [[GnuSkinPlugin]] is a rip-off from the [[TigerSkinPlugin]] with a lot of the useless stuff removed. It is designed to be simple and functional and yet stylish enough to be used in production like environments.
+
+The [[GnuSkin]] design is a rip-off [the Hurd website](http://hurd.gnu.org/), with a few bells and whistles from TWiki added.
+
+See the [[GnuSkinPlugin]] page for more information about the [[GnuSkin]] features. Or take a look at the [[Know/WebHome]] for a hint of how it looks and feels.
