I am in the process of modifying E17 (I want to add so additional 
functionality to the file manager).  One of the things I need to be able to do 
is have a 'modal' dialog, that is a dislog box that grabs the focus and causes 
the program (the file manager) to wait.  I want events to be processed, but I 
want psuedo code like this:

   dialog = make_dialog(...);
   show(dialog);
   wait_for(dialog);

The 'wait_for()' call would not return until the OK button or Cancel (close)
button on the dialog has been clicked.  It is not clear how to do this -- the 
documentation does not seem to cover this case (or I can't it in the 
documentation).

Any pointers would be helpful.  Thanks in advance.
