Description _ recjake 2007-03-29 10:16:44 UTC
Open the advanced options and there on the left side "Editoreinstellungen".

You can see, some editors are named "(Type) - Editor" and some are "Type 
Editor" (without the hyphen) - see attached image.
This needs to be equalized. Proposal is without the hyphen (just subjective, 
cos it looks better)

Affected files (to remove the hyphen):
translatedfiles\src\xml\css\src\org\netbeans\modules\css\text\syntax\Bundle_de.properties
Line: 20

translatedfiles\src\html\editor\src\org\netbeans\modules\html\editor\options\Bundle_de.properties
Line: 18

translatedfiles\src\web\jspsyntax\src\org\netbeans\modules\web\core\syntax\Bundle_de.properties
Line: 24

The next two are for the SQL-Editor. It's quite unclear, which one is the 
related, so better change both.

Comment 2 _ rkusterer 2007-03-30 15:31:11 UTC
I chose the vaiant with a hyphen instead -- thanks for always providing the URIs!
Comment 3 _ recjake 2007-04-04 10:34:40 UTC
It seems changes for the fix wasn't committed against CVS, so this issue is 
still visible for a user and by that open.
Comment 4 _ rkusterer 2007-04-04 14:16:31 UTC
sorry, committed the change now
Comment 5 _ recjake 2007-04-05 08:40:52 UTC
Set to "Closed" with one remark:
All editors are using hyphens now, but the "Einfacher Editor" does not. This 
looks somewhat weird. The solutions without hyphens would have been the better 
one. :(
Comment 6 _ rkusterer 2007-04-05 10:48:53 UTC
PS: 

I see no alternative since both "Java Editor / HTML Editor" etc and "Javaeditor
/ Htmleditor" etc are against German orthography. (Deppenleerzeichen rule and
"gestoerter Lesefluss an Fugen" rule). 

And "Einfach-Editor" doesn't sound better either... "Standard-Editor" maybe?
Comment 7 _ recjake 2007-04-05 11:07:43 UTC
Of course, thus the issue is closed. The missing hyphen on "Einfacher Editor" 
doesn't disturb with the "Gestoerter Lesefluß"-rule as the original problems do.
"Standard-Editor" is misleading wording, as of most users are coding in Java, 
what means, for them the Javaeditor is the default one.

I still think it would be better to use:
XML Editor
HTML Editor
CSS Editor
...

But maybe we could omit the usage of the word "Editor"? The corresponding 
option is called "Editoreinstellungen", so the word "Editor" is somewhat a 
duplication.

What about asking the list?

But nonetheless, I think the current version is the best choice for now. Maybe 
a better solution would come up, with the translation of NB6? :)
