Guys,

I'd like to write a perl-based tool that helps me to
do my regular system monitoring tasks.
It would be running in console mode but using
'windows' to list the command outputs.

Curses::UI::TextEditor would be one of the elements
that I use to present the output in a nice formatted
way.

It appears to me that its -text option is not
accepting strings from a function but only static
texts.

Is there anyone here who already had to struggle with
this module before?

Sorry if it's an off-topic email here, I really don't
know where to ask my question.

Thanks in advance!

Regards,

John

Here's an example:

$w{202}->add(
                                undef, 'TextEditor',
                                -title => 'Disk
space',
                                -y => 0, -padright =>
0, -border => 1,
                                -padbottom => 0,
                                -readonly => 1,
                                -vscrollbar => 1,
                                -hscrollbar => 1,
                                -text => $text,
                        );

The variable $text has only a simple string value
something like "This is a test...", but when I run the
code the TextEditor only present '1'.

If I try to use the function like this

-text => \&fs_check,

The the result is 'CODE(0x972e3c4)'

It only works if I write a static string next to text:

-text => "This is a test..."
