Description Richard Neill 2008-09-23 23:54:52 UTC
When I use zenity --question, I'd like to specify names for the buttons, other than the defaults (OK, Cancel). The general UI principle is that the button names should say what they actually do. 

In this particular example, I really wanted OK to be labelled "Delete lock", and Cancel to be labeled "Don't start Firefox".

[At the same time, might I suggest that some questions need more than 2 answers, and that it's worth looking at kdialog to see some features that zenity is still missing.]
