NAME

       UI::Dialog::Console

SYNOPSIS

	 use UI::Dialog::Console;
	 my $d = new UI::Dialog::Console ( title => 'Default',
					   height => 20, width => 65,
					   listheight => 5 );

	 # Either a CDialog, Whiptail or ASCII msgbox widget should be displayed
	 # with a preference for CDialog.
	 $d->msgbox( title => 'Welcome!', text => 'Welcome one and all!' );

ABSTRACT

       UI::Dialog::Console is simply another meta-class for UI::Dialog. This class simply has a different order of priority than UI::Dialog and no
       GUI support.

DESCRIPTION

       This class is simply a nice way to try and ensure a Console based widget set.

EXPORT

	 None

INHERITS
