Hello,
I'm currently not a Mac OS X user in spite of the fact I'll switch as
soon as possible (as soon I have the money ;)).
So I would like to start immediatly to learn Objective-C and I would
like to know if it's possible to develop in Obj-C under Windows or
Linux.

Hi Fabien,
GNU C/C++ supports ObjC (not yet ObjC++ though, but this will soon
change) on all platforms, so you should be able to use it on Linux
without problems (there are some differences in the runtime libraries
AFAIK, but I don't think that is a problem for learning the
language...)
The next issue though would be to have the APIs you will find in MacOS
X available. Fortunately, there is an OpenSource "clone" of the many of
the most important NeXT/OS X frameworks:
http://www.gnustep.org
You can use it on Windows (never tried that), but I think you will be
more happy when using GnuStep on Linux/FreeBSD.
Hope this helps
Stephan
