Subject: [SLUG] Templates and their manufacture.


As a given project (I wasn't paying attention at the time)
I have to make a template.

I thought a template was something like the preamble of the LaTeX documents
I have been preparing for years: paragraph indent, font type, offsets etc.

Well, it is and it isn't.

The template I have been given is a GUI type that asks for information and,
when complete does something and tells you/displays a message.

As a dedicated command line user and an equally dedicated avoider of
Microsoft, I am somewhat stuck.

Can anyone, please, suggest an application that will do what I have been
requested?

Regards,

Bill Bennett.

If it's something simple you're after, what about dialog or its 
variations (I prefer Xdialog).


HTH,
