gnome-panel help missing command substitutions

[Joe Harrington]

Behavior:

When you click on an icon in the panel, a command gets executed. The user can set this command in the Properties dialog box for the icon. For the default firefox panel icon, it is "firefox %u". The %u is a command substitution of ...something. What? The help section 4.5.3.1 Launcher Commands and Locations should say, and it comes up when you click on "Help" in the properties dialog box for the icon. However, no % codes are documented here.

Desired behavior:

They should be.

Description: Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS

It may be that the documentation is in a different package, but they all get updated together.

Clearly 10.04 isn't going to get updates for something like this, but the change should be made in the current development version to improve things going forward. It will take someone in the know about 15 minutes.

Thanks,
