Hi, this is an edit box. It can be used to edit text from a file.
It's like a simple text editor, with these keys implemented:
PGDN - Move down one page
PGUP - Move up one page
DOWN - Move down one line
UP - Move up one line
DELETE - Delete the current character
BACKSPC - Delete the previous character
Unlike Xdialog, it does not do these:
CTRL C - Copy text
CTRL V - Paste text
Because dialog normally uses TAB for moving between fields,
this editbox uses CTRL/V as a literal-next character. You
can enter TAB characters by first pressing CTRL/V. This
example contains a few tab characters.
It supports the mouse - but only for positioning in the editbox,
or for clicking on buttons. Your terminal (emulator) may support
cut/paste.
Try to input some text below:
EOF
$DIALOG --title "EDIT BOX" \
--extra-button \
--help-button \
--fixed-font "$@" --editbox $input 0 0 2>$output
retval=$?
. ./report-edit
