Maybe you can actually try to be civil and talk about technology and not
scream. OS X save dialogs ALSO have bookmarks (or favorites). With at least
some Linux DEs, the dialogs for some programs have these favorites shown in
the menu... but they do not have a set of specific places just for saving
PDFs, nor do they have ones for sending to applications.

Add to that, the print dialogs are not even consistent. Looking at Mint Mate
17.2, for example, the print dialogs of the default web browser and word
processor are very different.

Maybe if YOU actually worked to use your OS and learn about it and others
you would not make such a fool of yourself as you attack others. :)

So SHOW it. I mean, really... stop flapping that jaw and whining about sour
grapes and actually SHOW it.

If you could actually FOCUS you would not waste so many posts trying to
understand simple concepts... or you could SHOW concepts you wanted to.

Really not hard. Just stop seeing the world as us vs. them and grow up a
little. Got it?
