Description Calum Benson 2002-07-16 14:09:18 UTC 
As per HIG guidelines, the 'Properties' and 'Preferences' menu items should
not have ellipses.  An ellipsis indicates that further user input is
*required* to complete a task, which is not the case with Properties and
Preferences as they are often used just to visually confirm settings.

Attaching a patch for removing the ellipses from 'Properties...' and
'Preferences...' menu items. 

s/Properties.../Properties
s/Preferences.../Preferences
