Project Description

UI::Dialog is an OOPerl wrapper for various dialog applications. It
supports the dialog backends Zenity, XDialog, GDialog, KDialog, CDialog,
and Whiptail. There is also an ASCII backend provided as a last resort
interface for the console-based dialog variants. UI::Dialog is a class
that provides a strict interface to these various backend modules. By
using UI:Dialog (with its imposed limitations on the widgets), you
can ensure that your Perl program will function with any available
interface. UI::Dialog is the result of a complete rewrite of the UDPM
CPAN module. This was done to break away from the bad choice of name
(UserDialogPerlModule) and to implement a cleaner, more detached, OOPerl
interface.

been enhanced to utilize the PATH environment variable when appropriate.
The documentation for the CDialog (infobox, calendar, timebox, tailbox,
and form) and Whiptail (infobox) backends has been updated.
