...I'll be really happy that it's finally released.
This release should clear the most litigious point against GTK+ : the file dialog.
Oh really? How many people have been sued over the old file dialog? Or maybe you meant contentious.
Liberal (adj.): Free from bigotry; open to progress; tolerant of others.
says the n00b: "it's good to see that GTK is catching up with the kernel version."
says the 1337: "..."
Esoteric reference.
Glad to see one more who opposes the button order change. Maybe we should start a mailing list ;)
Karma cannot be described by words alone.
Every time you say linux libraries you make baby stallman cry.
Anyway common usage of litigious means it doesn't make sense to use the word that way.
Take 1 enginer, 1 'end' user and 1 monkey and put them in front of the new GTK file chooser with a simple task: Open the file .bashrc.
- the end-user will give up after a few minutes first because it's obvious that there is no '.bashrc' available in the list.
- the enginer will complain, curse after the GTK file-selector and will eventually start KDE or a xterm.
- the monkey is be the only one to succeed because he is the most likely to type CTRL-L by mistake.
