NAME

       UI::Dialog::Backend::Zenity - wrapper of the Zenity application.

SYNOPSIS

         use UI::Dialog::Backend::Zenity;
         my $d = new UI::Dialog::Backend::Zenity ( backtitle => 'Demo',
                                                   title => 'Default' );

         $d->msgbox( title => 'Welcome!', text => 'Welcome one and all!' );

ABSTRACT

       Zenity is the speedy, slick, and ultimately cool GTK2 dialog variant that is destined to
       obselete the current GNOME dialog variant; GDialog. This is an OOPerl wrapper of the
       Zenity application.

DESCRIPTION

       UI::Dialog::Backend::Zenity is the UI::Dialog backend for the new GNOME dialog variant.
       While this module is used through UI::Dialog or any other loader module only the
       compatible methods are ever accessible. However, when using this module directly in your
       application (as in the SYNOPSIS example) you are given access to all the options and
       features of the real zenity(1) application.

       OPTIONS
           The (...)'s after each option indicate the default for the option. An * denotes
           support by all the widget methods on a per-use policy defaulting to the values decided
           during object creation.
