<p>
Use the <cmd>--entry</cmd> option to create a text entry dialog. <app>Zenity</app> returns the contents of the text entry to standard output.
</p>
<p>
The text entry dialog supports the following options:
</p>
<terms>
<item>
<title><cmd>--text</cmd>=<var>text</var></title>
<p>Specifies the text that is displayed in the text entry dialog.</p>
</item>
<item>
<title><cmd>--entry-text</cmd>=<var>text</var></title>
<p>Specifies the text that is displayed in the entry field of the text entry dialog.</p>
</item>
<item>
<title><cmd>--hide-text</cmd></title>
<p>Hides the text in the entry field of the text entry dialog.</p>
</item>
</terms>
<p>
The following example script shows how to create a text entry dialog:
</p>
<code>
#!/bin/sh
if zenity --entry \
--title="Add new profile" \
--text="Enter name of new profile:" \
--entry-text "NewProfile"
then echo $?
else echo "No name entered"
fi
</code>
