the feature I want (Score:2, Interesting)
Now, I decide to save a document. I go to the File menu and select Save..., and am presented with the familiar "save" dialog. The default or current filename is in the text box at the bottom, and the directory navigation boxes are above.
Suppose further that I want to now save the file in a different directory. So I select a new directory, and the filename disappears.
Has this been fixed in 2.0?

Just a question, not for the sake of argument. i'm a linux desktop newbie.

Some questions (Score:4, Interesting)
But some others:
1) The old volume control applet was way nicer than the current one, any possibility of it coming back?
2) I know the Gnome2 applet API is not backwards compatible to the old one. How hard would it be to port a Gnome1 applet to a Gnome2 applet, and when will some docs appear? (Specifically looking into porting the Gaim applet, and some others I can't use anymore)
I think that's it for now...
besides that, good f*g job!
Icons (Score:2, Interesting)
The "home" icon in Gnome takes liberties on OSX, as does the terminal, and the process viewer. Hell, one of the screenshots features a straight rip-off of the OSX "Internet" globe.
I'm a little puzzled.

he was already a brilliant OpenGL programmer (luminescent is his handle on sf.net... he has some cool stuff there) but only delt with windows.
so.. if you like SC2 for linux... thank him, but thank me for getting him into linux too
(oh. to his credit.. he only started using linux and SDL a year ago... and loved enlightenment so much that he's stuck to it.. hehe)
