DESCRIPTION

39       Curses::UI::Dialog::Basic is a basic dialog. This type of dialog has a
40       message on it and one or more buttons. It can be used to show a message
41       to the user of your program ("The thingy has been updated") or to get
42       some kind of confirmation from the user ("Are you sure you want to
43       update the thingy?").
44
45       See exampes/demo-Curses::UI::Dialog::Basic in the distribution for a
