Description Rochelle Raccah 2002-03-25 20:27:26 UTC 
From a discussion on nbui:

> it *for each file*.  This is a huge pain in the neck.  I know I can

> What is the purpose of the confirmation dialog anyway?  If necessary,
> there should be one dialog which lists all the files like on IDE exit
> for unsaved files.

File a bug in text/ui, this annoys me too and should be trivial to fix.

I see this as a reasonable change. Gabo, is that OK from the UI point
of view?
Comment 2 Marek Grummich 2002-07-22 11:39:41 UTC 
Set target milestone to TBD
Comment 3 Miloslav Metelka 2003-03-14 15:52:28 UTC 
I'm unable to fix the issue into 3.5 so I'm setting target milestone
to 4.0.

Closing as WONTFIX. The functionality of text module was replaced by new build
system and changes in the core and text module was removed from dev build.
