[PATCH 2/2] Improve look-and-feel of the gitk tool.

From
EREygene Ryabinkin <rea-git@codelabs.ru>
Date
Mar 27, 2007, 10:36 UTC
Message-ID
<20070327103659.GY14837@codelabs.ru>

Made the default buttons on the dialog active and focused upon the dialog appearence.

Bound 'Escape' and 'Return' keys to the dialog dismissal where it was appropriate: mainly for dialogs with only one button and no editable fields.

Unified the look of the "About gitk" and "Key bindings" dialogs.
