* Description
* Set SHORTDESCRIPTION = A complete bare bones skin theme template for TWiki
* Debug plugin? Output can be viewed in data/debug.txt
* Set DEBUG = 0
The [[GnuSkin]] makes use of most the [[WebMenu]] concept, first introduced by the [[TigerSkin]]. See it in action on the [[Know/WebHome]].
Status: It's at beta stage. Now I only have to start ripping out allt the pieces that still say [[TigerSkin]] and are redundant before I start distributing this.
Download: Send me an email if you want a snapshot.
See the [[GnuSkinPluginDev]] for development talk,

## <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...

* Release v1.0
* Simplify, simplify, simplify!

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 & 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.
