Description Martin Schmidkunz 2009-02-20 13:41:09 UTC
According to the YaST style guide "Abort" should not be used in YaST modules anymore.
The reasons for that are
* consistency with dektop labels (GNOME & KDE use both "Cancel" as label)
* conistency within YaST modules (some use "Cancel", some use "Abort" and having one label will make the work easer for translators, look the whole YaST more professional and icrease usability)
* consistency with YaST libraries like popup.ycp which uses "Cancel"
* "Abort" has a disrespecful connotation in English

Please replace the "Abort" string in wizard.ycp with "Cancel"

Thanks a lot in advance!

I'm afraid it cannot be solved this way as Wizard is used by installation. Installation still requires [Abort] button. Anyway, Mzugec has already created another Wizard functions that use [Cancel] instead of the [Abort] button. That's a correct solution.
