[GRASSLIST:10132] RE: updates to gism2 - Feb2, 2006

[Michael Barton]

Chris,

Thanks for the information. You are right about #1‹it is a title issue. I
had to rewrite the save and open file routines somewhat, and I haven¹t yet
debugged the menu access to the routines. It should be easy to fix, as I
just need to change the procedures that the menu items change.

Michael

Hi again,

Thank you again for the most recent fixes!

I can verify Eric's errors 1-3 regarding workspace resource files, again
working on MacOSX. The only notes I'd add include the following:

> 1) Clicking the 'Open existing workspace file' button opens a 'Save File'
> dialog box. Shouldn't this be an Open File box?

This seems only to be a dialog box *title* problem: the button does actually
open (and not save) a resource file.

While the GUI buttons related to resource files all work for me, the only
command under the menus (File>Groups> ...) that seems to work is "Close". By
the same token, the only keyboard shortcut that works in this menu is ctrl-W
for "Close."
