Since I mumbled about the GTK2 client, and since I had dabbled in the glade designer tool (a long time ago), I thought about digging into the client...
I dislike having to mouse to the quit button on the metaserver dialog. I know that alt-f4 will kill the window and app, but that is awkward too. Does anyone care if I add an Escape key as an accelerator for the Quit button on that dialog? This works to close the dialog and application whether or not a server has been selected. To tell people about the feature, I added a tool tip to the Quit button that says: Escape also quits. While working on that dialog, I made some small cosmetic changes. The changes involve add padding to theelements at the bottom of the dialog so that widgets have a small amount of spacing between each other and between the bottom edge of the panel. Also, I prefer to see more of the Server Comment field than having wide column titles. I propose changing "# Players" -> "Players" "Last Update (sec)" -> "Updated (Sec)" I also propose removing "IP Addr" since all entries use the same value as they give for "Hostname". See http://krayvin.home.att.net/metaserver.png for the proposed changes. I made the Glade changes in the Glade Designer. I would like to check in my changes. Is everyone okay with that? Kevin R.
