gxinput is a convenience dialog used to obtain text from the user.
The dialog is a modal (blocking) widget, and must be dismissed
before program execution can continue.
To compile a demo version of gxdialog, peruse the Imakefile to ensure
that it is acceptable for your system, then enter the following:
xmkmf
make
./gxdialog
USAGE
Just #include the header file gxdialog.h in your application, and
compile your application with gxdialog.c.
The prototype for gxdialog is as follows:
gint gxdialog (const gchar *type_str,
const gchar *message_str
const gchar *utitle)
Thus to invoke a dialog, use a call such as
gint x;
x = gxdialog ("question", "File exists.\nOk to overwrite?", NULL);
The prototype for gxinput is as follows:
gchar *gxinput (const gchar *message_str,
const gchar *init_str,
const gchar *utitle)
To use gxinput, use a call such as
gchar *ans;
ans = gxinput ("Enter number of bottles of beer on the wall",
"99", "Window Title");
