Change Load File to Open Document (923 bytes, patch)
2006-11-05 18:11 UTC, Steve Willoughby 		committed Details | Review

Description Joachim Noreiko 2006-11-05 14:27:03 UTC 
It's called, quite correctly, 'Open Document'.
The manual section 3.1. To Open a File says:

In the Load file dialog, select the file you want to open.

Excellent :)

Though I actually meant to change the text that says 'In the Load file dialog, select the file you want to open.'
My fault, sorry. I wasn't clear enough in the initial report. I was pushed for time and didn't make myself clear.

But the change in your patch is good too :)
So I'll commit that next time I'm on the right machine, and make the other change myself.

The main point is you appear to have survived an initial encounter with documentation and docbook. Let me know on the mailing list if you want more :)

Thanks for the patch.
Committed and closing as fixed.
