Then we'll have some long menues. Maybe some Submenus would be in order then. E.g. the Hotkeys for starting the analysis engines currently add 2 lines (this menue gets really long). So probably one could group that with scid's normal "start engine" calls. Stuff like that. I'll think about this and maybe come up with some addtional suggestions. > So my feeling is that this can wait for Tk 8.5, which will > allow some UI enhancements (and to get rid of the included > combobox.tcl file of Scid which is a little bit buggy). Just to note that for compatibility reason I'd suggest not to switch to Tk 8.5 upon the day of arrival but when it made it into the major Linux Distributions. (Noting that Tk is still 8.4 even in Debian Unstable. I consider everything that made it to Debian stable "spread wide enough".) Otherwise the build requirements would be really high. -- Kind regards, Alexander Wagner Universitaetsbibliothek Ilmenau Langewiesener Str. 37 98693 Ilmenau Tel.: 03677/69-4521 , Fax.: 03677/69-4617 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
