the videos are great, but my PC/Gorm does not behave like there.

A short summary of what I see when I follow these videos and try to do the 
same things:
http://xdev.org/gnustep/datasetdemo/index.html

connecting the slider with the text field, pressing
ctrl and keep it pressed, then clicking the slider
dragging and connecting it to the text field
I see the s at the slider, the T at the text field
Inspector window changes to "Connection" Inspector
there I see "Not Applicable"

http://student.fiit.stuba.sk/~kiselkov04/curconv-demo/demo.html
no question about special project name, and kind of application
no tabs (Attributes, Files, Frameworks, ...)in PC main window
just only Files view
no English subview of Interfaces, Just the CurrencyConverter.gorm
file behind Interfaces, clicking on the .gorm file, does not open 
the "Main Window" automatically

window title changes not while typing, but after pressing enter

clicking on "Main Menu" top menu bar, does not show the Menu Inspector
clicking to the Info menu changes the inspector to the Info Menu Inspector
clicking others, changes to the expected Inspectors, but nothing happens
when clicking on the top of the main menu.

controls, only non resizable was selectable, clicking on one of 
the two above, marks and unmarks the not resizable control of the
window

when I select the AppController in the Classes view in the main window
of Gorm, then the Inspector changes to the Attributes view of 
the class. But for all, Attributes, Connections, Size, Help, Custom Class
it states "Not Applicable" in the inspector window.

I have compiled from svn, r23336.

anybody has an idea whats wrong here?

kind regards
Sebastian
