Other Stuff

On the bright side of life, I made a --disable-xslt-bindings switch today that makes Mozilla not include anything at all from that particular module (unfortunately that disables XML pretty printing, but I think we can live with that); and I managed to fix Ye Olde Event Bug without causing innumerable regressions (I think). It even managed to fix a bug I did not expect to fix.

Bernd has been pushing border-collapse patches through today, and apparently one of the ones still in his tree fixes tghe border-collapse issue visible in Patch Viewer. Mmmm.

If an application is designed well, the reward for users is that they will learn it faster, accomplish their daily tasks more easily, and have fewer questions for the help desk. As a developer of a well-designed application, your returns on that investment are more upgrade revenue, reduced tech support, better reviews, less documentation, and higher customer satisfaction. The rewards of building a good-looking Aqua application are worth taking the extra time.

This topic is one we will tackle later in this article, but it refers to making sure that your application and the dock aren't fighting it out for supremacy of the screen.
