Re: [ jEdit-users ] Button order?

[Jesse P. <jp...@al...>]

I vote for leaving the buttons as they are - I generally develop muscle
memory of sorts in clicking buttons, and would find having them move around
in a new version of jEdit surprising.

It could be L&F based -- anyone using the native L&F would have platform
button order, while all the cross-platform L&F's would use Java button
order.

Best,
Jesse
