Ah, I see. Not everyone follows the development of every window manager on earth, so you couldn't really expect me to get your irony.

Err, did you ever wonder why Emacs is so popular among people who actually use their computer? > A good application should come up with good shortcuts already > configured.

Applications are different; they provide different features, and therefore cannot have the same shortcuts except for a handful of things, such as copy, paste and quit. If you only accept "standard shortcuts", then all other features are not accessible from the keyboard, with the result that in most cases, the app won't be very usable, unless there are means to customize one's own shortcuts. > The GTK+ development used to be close to that of GIMP, but now it is > sticking to the GNOME releases and is mostly done by GNOME developers. > GIMP has still its own team, working with its insane development process > with one release each time hell freezes. Okay, so at least this confirms my impression that the GTK+ development is heavily influenced by the GNOME project. -- Florent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
