The way that the recent files are currently written to the File menu are carefully tailored to the way its normally done on the native platform. GNOME and Windows do it by putting them directly inline on the File menu, Mac OS X does it on the Open Recent menu. I think KDE does a "Open Recent" menu like Mac OS X, but GNOME is quite a bit more prevalent from what I've seen.

I think this should stay like it is by default, but you can do anything you want in a GUI plugin.

alright I 'll think about it and write a gui-plugin instead. I don't have neither gnome nor kde but I think inlining 10 recent items in the file menu is a bit too much =)

cheers, _y

It seems that almost everything that you are doing should go into the core. I am saying just the "Open Recent" versus File-inline issue might be best resolved using GUI plugins. If there was overwhelming support for using "Open Recent" by default on GNU/Linux, I could be fine with that too.
