I just checked the GNOME mailing list archives, and there's no sign of it in there.

Hi, Yep, it looks like people would prefer to move over to Enter, so I've confirmed the bug. ** Changed in: ubuntu-docs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Wishlist Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- Package internet in ubuntu-docs: press return instead of press enter https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213104 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

A question to Phil Bull: I saw there was a bit of a discussion on the ML after your initial post and it looks like most respondents would prefer Enter over Return.

[Bug 213104] Re: Package internet in ubuntu-docs: press return instead of press enter
Thanks for reporting this bug. Return seems to be the standard name for this key - not all keyboards have an Enter key (the one on the numeric keypad), but many do call the Return key Enter. As such, I don't think that the term should be changed.

[Bug 213104] Re: Package internet in ubuntu-docs: press return instead of press enter
Being a pack-rat, i have several keyboards at home, both working as well as broken. I just did a count and i have ten keyboards at home, including the two that are currently in use, but not counting the Mac keyboards. On all of the Mac keyboards that i have (from Mac128+ and up) and on most of the (8-bit) home computers, that key *is* called Return. However, on nine out of my ten PC keyboards, the big key (to call it that) has Enter printed on it, but never Return. One of the keyboards just has an arrow printed on the key. Therefore i submit that calling a key Return when it usually has Enter printed on it, is confusing for users. Especially to new users who may never have heard of such a thing as a Return key. -- Package internet in ubuntu-docs: press return instead of press enter https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213104 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 213104] Re: Package internet in ubuntu-docs: press return instead of press enter
Actually of the 20+ machines in this office, there are none with words and all with a symbol that coannot be replicated in unicode. Actually, historically return (as in carriage return) is as acceptable. I say this is a really unneccesary change as there is no other key that it could be confused with. -- Package internet in ubuntu-docs: press return instead of press enter https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213104 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 213104] Re: Package internet in ubuntu-docs: press return instead of press enter
I've seen several keyboards in my life, but never with return on it. Always with Enter. So I suggest to keep it this way. If you're really think this can make things hard to understand for people you could always make the word enter a tooltip. ;) -- Package internet in ubuntu-docs: press return instead of press enter https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213104 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
