# dialog.textinput Shows a dialog that accepts user input as text
Syntax
    dialog.textinput [-d=<default text>] [-i=<icon>] [-m] (<caption>,<info_text>,<button0>[,<button1>[,<button2>[,<magic1>[,<magic2>[...]]]]])
    {
        <callback_command>
    }
Description
Shows a text input dialog box with the specified <caption> , <info_text> , <icon> and buttons. <caption> is a text string that will appear in the caption of the dialog box. <info_text> is a fixed text string that will appear in the dialog box and can contain HTML formatting. <button0> is the text of the first button (on the left). <button1> is the text of the second button (if empty or not given at all, only one button will appear in the dialog). <button2> is the text of the third button (if empty or not given, only two buttons will appear in the dialog). If the -m switch is used , the dialog will be a multi-line text input, otherwise the user will be able to input only a single line of text. If the -d switch is used , the initial text input value is set to <default text>. If the -i switch is used , the dialog displays also the icon <icon> , just on the left ot the <info_text> In that case <icon> is an image identifier (can be a relative or absolute path to an image file or a signed number (in that case it defines an internal KVIrc image). <magic1>,<magic2>... are the magic parameters: evaluated at dialog.textinput call time and passed to the <callback_command> as positional parameters. Once the dialog has been shown , the user will click one of the buttons. At this point the dialog is hidden and the <callback_command> is executed passing the text input value in $1, the number of the button clicked as $0, and the magic parameters as positional parameters $2 , $3 , $4.... Please note that if the user closes the window with the window manager close button , the action is interpreted as a button2 click (that is usually sth as "Cancel").
Examples
    # We need a single line "reason"
    dialog.textinput -d="Working !" (Away,<center>Please enter the <h1>away message</h1></center>,"Ok","Cancel")
    {
        switch($0)
        {
            case 0:
                away $1-
            break;
            default:
                # Cancelled
            break;
        }
    }
