Description Julio Merino 2004-04-17 14:39:15 UTC 
When running gnome-font-viewer without arguments, it prints an usage message. 
More specifically, it says: "usage: foo fontfile".  It's obvious that 'foo' is
not the right thing to print, as it's pointless.  It should say
"gnome-font-viewer" instead.

Sample patch

The patch changes the string to say gnome-font-viewer.	I don't know if the
program name can be retrieved with an specific functions, but as far as I can
see, other modules in gnome-control-center use hardcoded strings.
Comment 2 alexander.winston 2004-05-16 15:06:51 UTC 
Confirming the bug, raising the priority to high for noticeability, and adding
the string keyword.
Comment 3 Jody Goldberg 2004-05-17 02:49:46 UTC 
1) I patched it to use argv[0] rather than hard coding the name
2) That string should be translated.
