| 
| * all user interface devices (buttons, menu items, etc) should always be
| verbs telling the computer to do something. i. e. "ok" is not a valid
| dialog box choice because it's unclear what you're telling the computer
| to do. "quit" "save" and "cancel" are better options.

speaking of dialogs. It would be very nice if one could turn off
specific dialog boxes by specifying that the answer should be yes, no,
save etc by the user's choice.
 
In this way one could get rid of nagging dialogs.
