"Save" is much more appropriate.

@larz0 Or "Done" maybe? Seems like settings-editing often uses that term nowadays...

Ahh "Done" is not bad either.

I think I'd prefer "Done", since in the context of a code editor "Save" has a pretty specific meaning.

That said, this feels to me like one of those desktop-vs-web things...on the desktop, people are really used to "OK" for confirming settings in modal dialogs.

I'm going to change the issue from "Save" to "Done".

We use OK a lot, we should check when to use Done and when to use OK, or should we replace OK with Done in all the dialogs?

If there's "Cancel" right next to "OK" then we should probably replace it with "Done" when there are form elements in the dialog.

Low pri to @larz0 - to either fix it yourself :), or at least assess which dialogs need to be changed.

Note that in Extension Manager we use "Close", but that's not really a settings dialog. Conversely, in things like Preferences on the Mac, the dialogs are nonmodal to begin with - settings are generally applied immediately, except in special cases like Network preferences, and you can't "cancel" to get back to previous settings. I wonder if we would want to consider going that route.

Ok sounds good, I'll take a crack at it.

I changed the button in the dialog for Project Settings to "Done", but wanted to check with @larz0 if any more need to be changed? Or what contexts they would be changed to "Done"?
