These are the package .info and .patch files--they're what Fink uses to build the package.
You might want to send your beef to finkcommander-users--that list is more directed toward FC-specific issues. Alexander K. Hansen Associate Research Scientist, Columbia University visiting MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center Levitated Dipole Experiment 175 Albany Street, NW17-219 Cambridge, MA 02139-4213 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lucas Gonze Sent: Sunday, June 08, 2003 6:33 PM Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Fink-beginners] usability issue: double clicking Double clicking on an item is one the biggest pieces of GUI real estate. FinkCommander spends it on, uh, a geeky mess of what looks like debugging info. For example double clicking on pan informs me that: ... diff -ru pan-0.13.3/po/Makefile.in.in pan-0.13.3-patched/po/Makefile.in.in --- pan-0.13.3/po/Makefile.in.in 2002-12-30 06:40:24.000000000 +0100 +++ pan-0.13.3-patched/po/Makefile.in.in 2003-03-01 03:03:27.000000000 +0100 @@ -26,9 +26,8 @@ prefix = @prefix@ exec_prefix = @exec_prefix@ -datadir = @datadir@ -libdir = @libdir@ -localedir = $(libdir)/locale +datadir = $(prefix)/share +localedir = $(datadir)/locale gnulocaledir = $(datadir)/locale gettextsrcdir = $(datadir)/glib-2.0/gettext/po subdir = po ... It would make far more sense from a usability perspective to have a double click perform whatever an "open" action in this context would be, since that's the standard and hence the expectation. Probably that would be to do a binary install of the item. - Lucas ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Etnus, makers of TotalView, The best thread debugger on the planet.
