As WMs cannot open windows themselves, Mutter uses zenity to open
"Force Quit" dialogs for unresponsive windows; as those are strongly
tied to the corresponding window, it makes sense to make them modal
(in particular when attaching them to their parent).

If you need to load a local html file, you can use --filename=patch/to/html.
Examples:
* zenity --text-info --html --filename=file.html
* zenity --text-info --html --url=www.gnome.org
Zenity will add http:// if isn't declared in --url
* Added a cancel button returning 1 if clicked
* Renamed the Close button to Ok, still returning 0 if clicked
* Added --ok-label=TEXT option to change the Ok button label
* Added --cancel-label=TEXT option to change the Cancel button label
* Added --checkbox=TEXT option to show an "I Agree and accept the terms" checkbox
If --checkbox is enabled, the Ok button will be disabled if the checkbox isn't checked.

* THANKS, src/about.c: Add from the 2 Sebastian's, and make
email addresses more spam proof.
* src/calendar.c, src/entry.c, src/fileselection.c, src/msg.c,
* src/progress.c, src/text.c, src/tree.c, src/util.c,

* src/calendar.c, src/entry.c, src/fileselection.c,
src/msg.c, src/progress.c, src/text.c, src/tree.c:
Patch from Darren Adams <darrenadams@dsl.pipex.com> to make
sure the new file chooser resizes nicely. Sanitize the default
setting of the other widgets.
* configure.in, src/util.c: Lose gconf dependancy since we
don't currently use it, although arguably we should to detect
which help browser we're supposed to run :/
* THANKS, src/about.c: Add Darren to the list.
2003-07-11 Kevin C. Krinke <kckrinke@opendoorsoftware.com>
* src/calendar.c, src/entry.c, src/fileselection.c, src/text.c,
src/tree.c: user input data output to STDOUT via g_print instead
of outputting to STDERR via g_printerr. This makes it possible to
destinguish user input data from GTK+ warnings / errors.
* THANKS, src/about.c: I figure this is my second patch submission
so I belong in the credits...
2003-04-13 Glynn Foster <glynn.foster@sun.com>
* src/calendar.c, src/entry.c, src/fileselection.c,
src/main.c, src/msg.c, src/progress.c, src/text.c,
src/tree.c, src/zenity.h: Finish off the indentation cleanup.
Add new '--width' and '--height' options to the general options.
Fix up the radio list view, so that we can now act like a radio
button group.
* TODO: Update
2003-01-19 Glynn Foster <glynn.foster@sun.com>
* src/about.c: Attempt to make things work after 2 bottles of
wine last night. Harmless changes though, so I'll commit them
for posterity.
* src/main.c: Add a new helper function for the error reporting
that makes the translators life easier. Thanks to Ole for spotting
this.
* src/text.c, src/zenity.h: Lame white spacing hacking.
* xmldocs.make: Put the docs in $(datadir)/help - not quite sure
yet if yelp is going to like this or not.
2003-01-18 Glynn Foster <glynn.foster@sun.com>
* data/Makefile.am, data/zenity-calendar.png,
data/zenity-entry.png, data/zenity-progress.png,
data/zenity-text.png: Some new window icons.
* src/text.c: Fix crash where the GladeXML ref was getting
unref'd before we wanted to use it.
* src/main.c: Fix up commandline parsing a little, although we
should really add the parsing options for gtk+.
* src/zenity.glade: Give some saner defaults.
* THANKS, src/about.c: Update for all the people I stole icons
and code from.
* TODO: Update accordingly.
2003-01-07 Glynn Foster <glynn.foster@sun.com>
* src/calendar.c, src/entry.c, src/fileselection.c,
src/main.c, src/msg.c, src/progress.c, src/text.c,
src/tree.c, src/zenity.glade, src/zenity.h: Fix up
the response signal handlers. Use returns of 0 for
'Ok' and 'Close', 1 for 'Cancel' and 'Escape' and
-1 for 'Uh Oh'. Get stuff printing to stderr. Fix up
the error handling that I thought was improved,
although still have issues with popt callback getting
called numerous times because of more than one instance
of the same kind is being used in poptOption.
* TODO: Update accordingly.
