MLDonkey G2gui is a next-generation crossplatform Graphical User Interface to the MLDonkey core. Its goal is to be userfriendly and powerful, using state of the art Java-techniques like SWT and other parts of the eclipse framework. MLdonkey G2gui is a graphical interface to MLDonkey.

MLdonkey G2gui is a graphical frontend to the MLdonkey Core[1]. It is written in java, makes use of SWT and other modern efficient libs and is fully gcj[2] compliant.
MLdonkey is a multi-network P2P client application.

G2gui comes in several flavours: Additionally to the source for compiling it yourself, natively compiled (win32, linux, ...) and java bytecode packages are available.

Compiling it from sources is recommended if you have a recent gcj (which is part of the Gnu Compiler Collection), but a version bigger than 3.2 is strictly required. If compilation fails, using natively precompiled binaries is recommended. In case they also refuse to run, stick to the java bytecode packages.

Under linux you can choose between gtk2, fox and motif builds. While gtk2 is prettier, some people prefer fox (and motif to a lesser extent) over gtk2 due to its higher responsiveness. You don't have any special choice under windows and MacOS
