I am wary that the word 'desktop' is already overloaded. Writing the UG, it's been hard to differentiate between: - desktop the thing at the back of the screen
That's always supposed to be referred to as the "desktop background" though, no? I remember the Sun docs team having nightmares about this when they wrote the docs style guide too :/
- desktop the universe
That would usually be "desktop environment" I guess, although I don't think the style guide specifies that.
- and the Desktop menu
Well, that's the "Desktop menu" :) Cheeri, Calum. -- CALUM BENSON, Usability Engineer Sun Microsystems Ireland mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Java Desktop System Team http://blogs.sun.com/calum +353 1 819 9771 Any opinions are personal and not necessarily those of Sun Microsystems _______________________________________________ Usability mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/usability
