Hi, this is an edit box. It can be used to edit text from a file.

It's like a simple text editor, with these keys implemented:

PGDN    - Move down one page
PGUP    - Move up one page
DOWN    - Move down one line
UP      - Move up one line
DELETE  - Delete the current character
BACKSPC - Delete the previous character

Unlike Xdialog, it does not do these:

CTRL C  - Copy text
CTRL V  - Paste text

Because dialog normally uses TAB for moving between fields,
this editbox uses CTRL/V as a literal-next character.  You
can enter TAB characters by first pressing CTRL/V.  This
example contains a few tab characters.

It supports the mouse - but only for positioning in the editbox,
or for clicking on buttons.  Your terminal (emulator) may support
cut/paste.

Try to input some text below:

EOF

$DIALOG --title "EDIT BOX" \
        --fixed-font "$@" --editbox $input 0 0 2>$output
returncode=$?

. ./report-edit
