In About Face 2.0, Cooper argues that there is no reason for a person to not want to save the changes when the application is closed. He proposes to always save changes (possibly using some kind of versioning / timestamping), and to provide a menu entry called "Abandon Changes" for those rare cases where you really do want to abandon what you did. -- Bye, -Torsten _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
