Ernie, dialog is a layer on top of ncurses for interacting with a user in a console to receive input. Debian uses it for asking questions about how to configure newly installed software if you choose it from one of the available alternatives. When you make a kernel, the make menuconfig may use it (I know it's ncurses). Have you done that recently? - richard -- Richard Kilgore [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
