textbox and user interaction
I'm wanting to get user interaction...textbox or checkboxes would be great. I want to allow someone to enter data into textbox. (this is the time I want to grab a photo from) Then I want to be able to check the different sizes I want for the image. Say 4 options.

Is this possible using the default Terminal on a Mac? I found this...it is buttons but the combination of textbox and checkboxes would be great.

Code:
#!/bin/bash
x=`/usr/bin/osascript <<EOT
tell application "Finder"
	activate
	set myReply to button returned of (display dialog "Here is a dialog box" default button 2 buttons {"button one", "button two", "OK"})
end tell
EOT`
echo 'Button is: '$x
if [[ $x = "OK" ]]; then 
echo 'Shell script continues...'
# Your
# Code
# Here
fi
echo 'Script ends.'

DESCRIPTION

       udisksctl is a command-line program used to interact with the udisksd(8) daemon process.

COMMANDS

       status
	   Shows high-level information about disk drives and block devices.

       info
	   Shows detailed information about OBJECT or DEVICE.

       mount
	   Mounts a device. The device will be mounted in a subdirectory in the /media hierarchy - upon successful completion, the mount point
	   will be printed to standard output.

	   The device will be mounted with a safe set of default options. You can influence the options passed to the mount(8) command with
	   --options. Note that only safe options are allowed - requests with inherently unsafe options such as suid or dev that would allow the
	   caller to gain additional privileges, are rejected.

       unmount
	   Unmounts a device. This only works if the device is mounted. The option --force can be used to request that the device is unmounted
	   even if active references exists.

       unlock
	   Unlocks an encrypted device. The passphrase will be requested from the controlling terminal and upon successful completion, the
	   cleartext device will be printed to standard output.

       lock
	   Locks a device. This only works if the device is a cleartext device backed by a cryptotext device.

       loop-setup
	   Sets up a loop device backed by FILE.

       loop-delete
	   Tears down a loop device.

       smart-simulate
	   Sets SMART data from the libatasmart blob given by FILE - see /usr/share/doc/libatasmart-devel-VERSION/ for blobs shipped with
	   libatasmart. This is a debugging feature used to check that applications act correctly when a disk is failing.

       monitor
	   Monitors the daemon for events.

       dump
	   Prints the current state of the daemon.

       help
	   Prints help and exit.

COMMON OPTIONS

       The option --no-user-interaction can be used to request that no interaction (such as the user being presented with an authentication
       dialog) must occur when checking with polkit(8) whether the caller is authorized to perform the requested action.

AUDIENCE

       This program does not assume that the caller is the super user - it is intended to be used by unprivileged users and authorizations are
       checked by the udisks daemon using polkit(8). Additionally, this program is not intended to be used by scripts or other programs -
       options/commands may change in incompatible ways in the future even in maintenance releases. See the "API STABILITY" section of udisks(8)
       for more information.

BASH COMPLETION

       udisksctl ships with a bash completion script to complete commands, objects, block devices and some options.
