From bug 237425: Doing Window > Show View > Other > Remote Systems > Remote Shell shows an empty, gray view since the view is not yet filled with any context. Similar to the "Window > Show View > Other > Java > Call Hierarchy" view, some help text should be displayed in the empty view, that explains why the view is empty and how to populate. This will require PII, but since an untranslated String is better than no String at all I'd think we can accomodate this in the TM 3.0.1 branch - Dave, Xuan, what do you think about this?

Created attachment 109328 [details] patch that sets help text for terminal view Could you please review this patch and the text for terminals view? If it's fine, I'll do the same for other views.

Anna, Sorry for the delay of the reply for your question. I was wondering if you could just change the one for the terminal view, since the other two will affect us. We translated our driver to different languages, and it is way past our NLS deadline now.

I checked in the fix for terminals view.
I have forked out the request for "Remote Shell" and "Remote Monitor" into bug 244429 such that we can get this one closed. Summary updated accordingly. I'm not sure if the text is correct PII, it might be that the single-quotes need to be quoted, Xuan can you check this please in org.eclipse.rse.terminals.ui / TerminalUIResources.properties: TerminalViewer_text=To open a terminal, right-click the Terminal subsystem under the target. Then select 'Launch Terminal' from the context menu. I'm also not sure if this text is informative enough. What about this: TerminalViewer_text=To open a terminal, open the Remote Systems view. Right-click the Terminal subsystem under the connection to use. Then select 'Launch Terminal' from the context menu.
Fix is in CVS already.
