The scrollbar for the sed is very annoying, it would be much better to drop the right margin in my opinion and use almost the whole screen apart from the column which contains the navigation. A narrow right margin would be ok. Also, the Gperf text in the Next link is truncated. firefox-small.png : about 960 pixels wide (the sort of thing you might do on a 1024-wide screen if your desktop has large buttons at the left for 'Ubuntu app store' etc (my netbook was like that until I put LFS-7.6 on it). The right margin actually looks ok here. But otherwise it has the same problems. qupzilla-regular.png : about 1150 pixels wide. At first I looked at the top of the page, saw the sed was all visible, took a pic and was going to say it seeded tolerable. But then I scrolled down a bit and saw that the install command still needs a scrollbar. The links are ok here, probably a toolkit issue. toc.png (firefox in an about 1200-pixel window). To me, the broad margin makes this look unbalanced (too far to the right). I would much prefer if hte text was left-aligned after the navigation column, perhaps with a narrow margin. ĸen -- This one goes up to eleven: but only on a clear day, with the wind in the right direction. -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
