For non-interactive, yesno() can be a no-op but it might as well call something as simple as 'zenity --title $1 --question --text $2' and check the return value. Even if the frontend doesn't use zenity itself, it is clear that it is trivial for the frontend to make its own version. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
