DESCRIPTION

These information dialogs present popup dialogs, with information and a single button, to the user. The shorter versions are defined by :

info_dialog(Msg) 
    :-
    info_dialog(Msg, 'Info').

info_dialog(Msg, Title) 
    :-
    info_dialog(tcli, Msg, Title).

EXAMPLES

The call

?- info_dialog('Message for the User', 'Dialog Box Title').

produces this information dialog:

NOTES

The default Tcl interpreter for info_dialog/[1,2] is tcli as shown above. This interpreter is _NOT_ automatically initialized by alsdev. You must first run init_tk_alslib/0 or init_tk_alslib/1, or run init_tk_alslib/2 with Interp = tcli. If you wish to run info_dialog/3 with Interp bound to a Tcl interpreter I other than tcli, you must first run init_tk_alslib/2 with Interp bound to this same I (only once is necessary).
