Good point. The GUI should never use "daemon".
The goal is to conceal the fact that there are two programs. We use "BOINC Manager" to refer to both. Where we need to refer to the client, we call it "client". -- David On 8/12/2017 4:30 AM, Jord van der Elst wrote:
I have a couple of niggles about the Options->More Options... menu, and then in particular the mouse-overs. In this menu the mouse-over text only works when mousing over the input boxes. Everywhere else in BOINC Manager's menus the mouse-over works over the text as well. Further, "Run daemon?"... is it wise to put it like that? Does the general public know what a daemon is? For us translators, it's even more difficult. Should we just use the word 'daemon' if it also exists in our language, or immediately describe what it means, like "background running program"? -- Jord van der Elst. _______________________________________________ boinc_alpha mailing list boinc_al...@ssl.berkeley.edu https://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_alpha To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
