Package: gnumeric Version: 1.7.13-1 Severity: wishlist
Why can't gnumeric just use one window like firefox? $ pstree -a -firefox-bin -a firefox |-gnumeric /tmp/y05-18.xls |-gnumeric /tmp/y05-19.xls |-gnumeric /tmp/y08-01.xls |-gnumeric /tmp/y08-03.xls |-{firefox-bin} |-{firefox-bin} |-{firefox-bin} |-{firefox-bin} |-{firefox-bin} `-{firefox-bin} Clicking on .xls files in firefox fills the icewm window list with many different instances of gnumeric which don't know about each other, and cannot all be ended with one "quit" menu click. One needs to use an ugly killall.
