NAME

       Config::Model::CursesUI - Curses interface to edit config data

SYNOPSIS

	use Config::Model ;
	use Config::Model::CursesUI ;

	my $model = Config::Model -> new ;

	my $inst = $model->instance (root_class_name => 'XXX',
				     instance_name   => 'yyy');

	# create dialog
	my $dialog = Config::Model::CursesUI-> new
	 (
	  experience => 'beginner', # or 'advanced'
	 ) ;

	# start never returns
	$dialog->start($model) ;

DESCRIPTION

       This class provides a Curses::UI interface to configuration data managed by Config::Model.

       IMPORTANT: Once the CursesUI object is created, STDOUT and STDERR are managed by the Curses interface, so all print and warn will not work
       as expected.

CONSTRUCTOR

       The constructor accepts the following parameters:

       experience
	   Specifies the experience level of the user (default: "beginner"). The experience can be "master advanced beginner".

       load
	   Subroutine ref containing the code to load the configuration data from the configuration files. This may overrides loading mechanism
	   specified in the model with Config::Model::AutoRead. This sub is called without any arguments.

       store
	   Subroutine ref containing the code to store the configuration data in the configuration files.  This may overrides writing mechanism
	   specified in the model with Config::Model::AutoRead. This sub is called without any arguments.
