267405 - [Linux] File > Quit menu item needs to be consistent across windows

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[sairuh (rarely reading bugmail)]

found using 2004110105-0.9 on linux fc2.

in the tbird 3pane window, File > Quit (Ctrl+Q) is fine under linux --however in
the Address Book and Message Compose windows say File > Exit (Ctrl+Q). those
windows should have the same text as the 3pane window's menu.

Marcia, how does this appear on Mac?

is this also inconsistent on Windows?

Comment 1

[Scott MacGregor]

on windows it shows File / Exit (Ctrl Q) everywhere for all 3 windows. 

Comment 2

[Marcia Knous [:marcia]]

On the Mac, in all three areas you can select File | Close or Command W, so it
is consistent.

I should've clarified for Mac: the Thunderbird application menu consistently
lists Quit Thunderbird (Cmd+Q). Marcia, thanks for checking the File menu there.

so this bug is specific to Linux.

What should it be in linux apps? File / Exit or File / Quit? 

If you look at Firefox on Linux we can just do what they do.

Comment 5

[sairuh (rarely reading bugmail)]

let's use File > Quit, as that's what Firefox uses.
