# gdialog -> zenity conversion wrapper
#
# by Mike Newman <mikegtn@gnome.org>
#
# This is all, of course, horrible - but it should translate
# most commond gdialog types to zenity equivalents. It will drop
# the pointless and unused (even by gdialog!) size arguments
# but hopefully will pass all the others.
#
# For testing purposes, I've used a couple of the nautilus scripts
# available at http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net - what is sometimes
# unclear is what is a gdialog/zenity translation problem, and what is
# a problem with the script
