Right, it's not the title itself that's incorrect; it's the title in conjunction with the other titles. Although, personally, I strongly prefer gerunds. I don't know why. They just read better. (Then again, I've seen documentation which just directly used the command form, like "Save a File", which I though read nicely as well.) -- Shaun _______________________________________________ gnome-doc-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-doc-list
