Dear list, I'm searching for something really strange, maybe some reader will be able to tell me what I'm searching for. :-)
For a special application, I need a programmable dialog library that has... well, how to describe it... anyone know SIOS? Or at least TSO? A bit like this. A kind of form-driven screen layout. A silly example: E n t e r s o m e d a t a ----------------------------------------------------------- Name: ____________________ Address: ____________________ Foo: ____________________ Pups: ___ Furz: ___ Bar: ____/__/__ Logon: ________ F1 F2 F3 F9 F10 Help Done Reset Print Cancel ----------------------------------------------------------- 250/81 3 Where I used underscores, an input line should occur. Positions and length as well as colour of text and input should be specified, customization of function keys would be great, skipping from input field to input field, too. Default values would eventually appear in the input lines. The whole library should be accessible via C, or at least for a shell script. You know, a bit like Tcl/Tk, but in text mode. Any suggestions? Ideas? If not, I will need to write this myself, but I considered asking the list for being able to avoid reinventing the wheel. I know it's not such a big deal, but if it alredy exists...? -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
