> I see no visual difference between the Terminal Inspector and Finder's
View Options (which is essentially an inspector).

Look again - the standard Font Panel window title bar has the "background" white and striped look, while the Terminal Window Settings inspector has the gray gradient look.

If you click the Font Panel so it becomes frontmost, looks like the Window Settings. Likewise, if you click on the termiinal window again, Window Settings gets a background look. There's no visual distinction between them that I can tell. (They may *start* differently, it's true. But as windows, they're the same.)


Don't mix the Finder into this - it's not only a Carbon app, but also really weird in so many other ways.

I hate to break it to you, but on the Macintosh, Finder defines the computer, not Terminal.


> I'm also not aware of a visual difference for key or non-key.

OK, I finally figured this out -- it's much less obvious when you have your machine set to Graphite appearance, and very subtle even if you have Blue appearance.


(At the risk of getting further off-topic from Xcode, is there any way to get the colored window gadgets but graphite controls?)
