&app; creates simple dialogs. You can use &app; to create a script that
|
|
interacts graphically with the user.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
When the user closes the dialog,
|
|
&app; prints text produced by the dialog to standard error.
|

</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Ensure that all arguments to &app; are surrounded by quotes. For example, use
|
|
<command>zenity --calendar --title="Holiday Planner"</command> instead of
|
|
<command>zenity --calendar --title=Holiday Planner</command>.
|
|
If you do not use quotes, you can get unexpected results.

Some dialogs support the use of keyboard mnemonics. To specify the character to use as
|
|
the mnemonic, place an underscore before that character in the text of the dialog. For
|
|
example, to specify the 'P' as the keyboard mnemonic in the following sentence, use
|
|
"_Please choose a name".
