Description Alan Horkan 2005-07-03 22:48:39 UTC 
might be an idea to use the Translators tab in the about dialog rather than
banging everything into the one "written by" tab.
Comment 1 Glynn Foster 2005-07-03 23:57:10 UTC 
It was originally because the Translators tab only contains the list of people
that translated the strings for that particular language you were running in. I
wanted to make sure we had somewhere to credit them all.
Comment 2 Glynn Foster 2005-07-04 00:07:38 UTC 
probably should use gtkabout though rather than the custom about dialog that's
already there - preserving the easter egg of course ;)
Comment 3 Alan Horkan 2005-07-04 12:17:25 UTC 
custom dialog?  I was wondering how you had a Gnome about dialog without any
libgnomeui dependancy.  

I thought it was undocumented code rather than an easter egg because otherwise
the help documentation is going to waste.  

If you give me a chance I'll try making the change to GtkAbout and see about
getting myself on that list of contributors.  You sure you want the Gtk 2.6
dependancy?
Comment 4 Glynn Foster 2005-07-04 21:52:38 UTC 
Well, it's just a cut and paste of the libgnomeui about dialog just so that I
didn't have to depend on gnome_program_*.
Feel free to provide a patch for GtkAbout - the dependancy is no problem, since
we're depending on glib-2.6.x. Thanks!
Comment 5 Lucas Rocha 2005-12-18 03:19:57 UTC 
Done. Now Zenity uses GtkAboutDialog. The "ZEN" easter egg is preserved of course!

        * src/about.c: use GtkAboutDialog instead of custom
        dialog (Fixes bug #309405).
        * src/zenity.glade: remove zenity_about_dialog.
        * configure.in: zenity now depends on GTK+ >= 2.6.x
        because now it uses GtkAboutDialog.
