That sounds like a good candidate for a switch but we should look at the features to see if they have parity or if they have difference (and which ones/if we would miss anything we think is important) Cheers, Sebastien Bacher -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list ubuntu-desktop@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop
Default App: GNOME Characters
gnome-characters is a character browser and is part of the core GNOME apps. All its dependencies are in main. It replaces the older gucharmap that we continue to ship. gnome-characters has a GUI that fits in with the GNOME style, while gucharmap has an old fashioned interface. I found it simpler to find useful characters than gucharmap (which is more of a Unicode browser) and the use of a Headerbar makes it more consistent with the rest of the desktop. We should ship it by default or give a reason in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DefaultApps why it should not be included. --Robert -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list ubuntu-desktop@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop
