456787 - Basic preferences

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Mozilla Labs :: Prism, defect)

Description

[Matthew Gertner]

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=405891 may or may not be the way to go in the longer term, but in the meantime we do need a way to set some essential preferences. I've had requests for fonts/colors, proxy settings and locales, among others. I would suggest a simple dialog accessible from the gear menu, with XUL and logic pinched from Firefox where necessary.

Preference dialog for fonts and colors

preferences.properties seems to have many unused strings. Do you really want them all?

Maybe a little cleanup in that file?

Seems like preferences.properties isn't used at all, so I axed it. With that change, committed:
