GEM (Graphical Environment Manager) was a windowing system created by Digital Research, Inc. (DRI) for use with the CP/M operating system on the Intel 8088 and Motorola 68000 microprocessors.
GEM is known primarily as the graphical user interface (GUI) for the Atari ST series of computers, and somewhat less well known as the operating system for a series of PC-like computers from Amstrad.
Unlike the Macintosh, the GEM Desktop was based on top of DOS (MS-DOS or DR DOS+ on the PC, TOS on the Atari), and as a result the actual display was cluttered with computer-like items including path names and wildcards.

A GEM eredetileg nagyon is hasonlított a MacOS-re, mely a Xerox PARC-tól átvett koncepciókat először alkalmazta, és ezért jogi vita után a GEM-et meg kellett változtatni, hogy ne hasonlítson annyira a MacOS-re.
A GEM tehát grafikus környezetet biztosított a programok (és így a felhasználó) számára: ablakokat lehetett egérrel kezelni, ikonokon keresztül kiválasztani a programokat.

 Meet GEM Desktop
A 'desktop', which is the starting image that appears on your ST screen, has become the standard visual metaphor for the new breed of "user-friendly" computers that substitute onscreen self-explanatory graphic symbols for confusing keyboard commands.
On your GEM Desktop (Figure 1) you will see icons (pictorial symbols) of file cabinets (which actually mean disks), a trash can, and a line across the top offering four choices.
In the middle of the desktop area is a small, fl arrow which is your cursor.

 Step 1: Customizing the GEM Desktop Too!
This is the "sequel" to the original "Customizing the GEM Desktop," which appeared in the May 1987 issue of ST-Log.
You can select any icon you wish to use on the Desktop, but be warned that the "letter" for a drive icon (if using anything but the disk icon) will appear in the upper left corner of the icon, rather than where it appears on the file-drawer icon.
What you'll do is draw a NEO or DEGAS picture of the Desktop, complete with (in low resolution) multicolor icons, etc. The best way to do this is to take a "snapshot" of your current Desktop, using one of the many public domain snapshot utilities.

Since TOS was based on GEM/1 and Atari was never sued directly they did not have to cripple the interface as DRI did.
Development of GEM at Atari took it along other paths than the PC versions.
By the 1990s GEM included 24-bit color support, configurable window elements, scalable fonts, preemptive multitasking via a kernel based on UNIX, called MiNT (MiNT is Not TOS), and a host of other features.

 HotWire from CodeHead - AtariAge Forums
For many of my Atari ST/STE/TT years I used Maxifile/Multidesk/Hotwire as my replacement to using the standard GEM desktop for program launching, file copying, disk formatting, etc, etc.
Multidesk allows loading/unloading of desk accessories on the fly (I think up to 32).  I don't believe Neodesk supports this feature directly.  I believe if you are using Gribnif's other product (Geneva) you can load unload accessories like multidesk allows.
but since's Multidesk is not a desktop environment, That's what you've picked up on when in fact my focus is on using Neodesk with Hotwire, regardless of Multidesk.
