Description Sam Illingworth 2009-09-29 11:51:12 UTC
When clicking on an executable file it asks if you want to "Display" the contents; it should say "Display/Edit" (perhaps it could could say "Display/Edit" if you have write permissions, and "Display" if you don't?).


Also, the order these options are displayed in seems illogical:

Run in Terminal    Display    Cancel    Run

Surely the two Run options should be next to each other, and Cancel should be at one end (the Gnome standard end, I can't remember if that's left or right, but as Run is kind of the OK in this dialogue, I think it should be the opposite end).  I think Run in Terminal should remain next to Display/Edit, since it's the option you are more likely to use for debugging after Editing, so, either

Run    Run in Terminal    Display/Edit    [Cancel]

or

[Cancel]    Display/Edit    Run in Terminal    Run
