Newt is a windowing toolkit for text mode built from the slang
|
|
|
|
|
library. It allows color text mode applications to easily use
|
|
|
|
|
stackable windows, push buttons, check boxes, radio buttons, lists,
|
|
|
|
|
entry fields, labels, and displayable text. Scrollbars are supported,
|
|
|
|
|
and forms may be nested to provide extra functionality.

Besides the newt library, this port provides whiptail, which may
|
|
|
|
|
be used from shell scripts similarly to Savio Lam's "dialog". Newt
|
|
|
|
|
provides the textual interface for the Red Hat and Debian boot
|
|
|
|
|
disks.
