Package: scite Version: 1.71-1 Severity: wishlist
Clicking on Help->SciTE Help causes the following response: >x-www-browser "file:///usr/share/scite/SciTEDoc.html" >Exit code: 0 If you have a browser (i.e. firefox/iceweasel) running and it is iconized, then nothing visible happens. The page is loaded, but the page and the browser remains a tiny icon. This can incorrectly convince people (e.g. me) that the help system is broken. It would be best if scite could give the browser some flag to cause it to de-iconize, if such a thing exists. (It could be done with some javascript, at least for many browsers.) Or, at least have it echo "SciTE documentation should appear in your web browser." That might cause some people to scratch their head, say "Duh!" and click on the web browser icon. If implemented, this wishlist item will reduce frustration by 30 seconds in 30% of the users and will reduce frustration by 4 minutes in another 10%. The other 60% never have their browsers iconized. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-3-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages scite depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.20.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.7-3 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.4.10-1+lenny2 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libfontconfig1 2.4.2-1.2 generic font configuration library ii libgcc1 1:4.2.2-4 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.14.3-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.12.1-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libpango1.0-0 1.18.3-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libstdc++6 4.2.2-4 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-7 X11 client-side library ii libxcursor1 1:1.1.9-1 X cursor management library ii libxext6 1:1.0.3-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxfixes3 1:4.0.3-2 X11 miscellaneous 'fixes' extensio ii libxi6 2:1.1.3-1 X11 Input extension library ii libxinerama1 1:1.0.2-1 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxrandr2 2:1.2.2-1 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.4-1 X Rendering Extension client libra scite recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
