Not even close in this regard. Compare: http://java.sun.com/products/jlf/ed2/book/HIG.Visual3.html#78052 http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/design-text-labels.html#layout-capitalization If it's true that Sun helped to write the GNOME guidelines, it is strange that the Java guidelines are so different in this regard. I wonder why that is? > Not sure I entirely trust those Java guidelines, the manage to mispell > centimetres and they use an unnecessary abbreviatoin "don't" :P It's not just the Java guidelines, Americans haven't spoken English in years. Is "abbreviatoin" the Irish spelling of "abbreviation?" ;-). -- Bill Wohler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD Maintainer of comp.mail.mh FAQ and MH-E.
