<td>
Options Dialog for Extensions
</td>
<td>
An extension may require to be configured before it can be used
reasonably or in order to adapt it to personal preferences. For
example, a spell checker extension could be configured to use different
sets of grammar rules, a clock extension could be configured to show
twelve or twenty four hours, etc. Configuring the extension should be
as easy as possible for the user. That is, a dialog should be used
rather then some obscure configuration files which need to be edited.
And, of course, this dialog should be easily accessible, that is, it
needs to be found intuitively.Future extensions shall be able to
integrate own options pages into the options dialog. An options page is
similar to a dialog but is lacking the title bar and border so that it
can be shown in a parent window, which is the option dialog. The
options dialog can also be started from the Extension Manager, in which
case it shows only the options pages of the selected extension.
