16 nxdialog is a GUI helper that can be used with nxagent to provide user
17 interaction on certain events inside nxagent. It adds graphical widgets
18 (menus, dialog boxes, etc.) to nxagent that allow a smarter user
19 interaction with the agent.
20
21 nxagent is not using nxdialog by default, set the $NX_CLIENT
22 environment variable to make the nxdialog path known to nxagent.
23
24 If you want to disable nxdialog usage in nxagent, then make sure that
25 the $NX_CLIENT environment variable is unset.
