introducing MATE

MATÉ is a desktop environment forked from the now unmaintained code base of GNOME 2. The name derives from yerba mate, a species of holly native to subtropical South America used to prepare a beverage called mate.The renaming is necessary to avoid conflicts with Gnome 3 components.


Applications

Several Gnome applications have been forked and renamed:
  • Caja - File manager (from Nautilus)
  • Pluma - Text editor (from Gedit)
  • Eye of Mate - Image viewer (from Eye of Gnome)
  • Atril - Document Viewer (from Evince)
  • Engrampa - Compression tool (from File-roller)
  • MATE Terminal - Terminal emulator (from Gnome terminal)
