pop up a window
Hi,
Is there any way to pop up a window displaying some text by using either bash script or c++ or both? I am using RHEL3. Thanks a lot. Manojg |
in a console you can use "dialog", in gnome there's "zenity" which replaces gdialog. you may well also have luck with kdialog for kde and the generic xdialog.
|
Thanks a lot. The "dialog" one is impressive. Is it possible to make it pup up like in the case of "gdialog"? Because if I run it in backgound, nothing will happen.
|
When I faced this, I chose zenity---can't remember WHY--but zenity works like a charm.
|
Zenity is real nice, shame about it's unnecessary gnome dependence :(
|
Try xdialog, which Chris suggested as one of the dialog programs. I found it to start fastest of the ones I tried (no need to load kdelibs first or anything else). It requires just minimal dependencies that every Linux system should have out of the box.

Thanks a lot everybody. I am playing with Xdialog and zenity. These are nice.
Thanks again for your help. |
