[ "inconvinient" => "inconvenient"] The mix of Swedish and English is too bad :-( And yes, the text is pretty long. Suince the old Gtk dialog is on the way out, I'd rather not advertise it, and instead try and make the new dialog more usable. I think the only important info from this text is the C-l thingy. Could we even do away with it by making the text input area appear unconditionally? Stefan
