While testing, I swap between versions all the time, and the few changes can be slightly annoying, but not critical. Anyway, you've stated a (previously undocumented) rationale, and it conflicts with the reporter's desire that his options always be saved as soon as he makes the changes. That's what we all needed to know.... So, here's a different idea: in addition to the Cancel and OK buttons on the various options/settings dialogs, add a Save button. I'm not good at GTK2 programming, but it looks relatively easy. _______________________________________________ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
