Überblick
Display user-friendly message boxes from shell scripts
Verlauf
dialog is the classic curses-based program for showing message boxes, menus, gauges, forms, and other text user-interface widgets from shell scripts.
The official history traces dialog to Savio Lam's initial 0.1 release on 1993-12-17, when the program had inputbox, msgbox, and yesno options. Through 1994 and 1995, contributors added checklist, menu, textbox, color, shadows, radiolist, gauge, mouse support, and related features.
dialog became part of Unix installer and system-script culture because shell scripts could ask structured questions without depending on a graphical desktop. The official history notes FreeBSD's fork and its use around sysinstall, and the project page compares related tools such as whiptail, Xdialog, gdialog, zenity, kdialog, and bsddialog.
The manpage describes dialog as a program that lets scripts present questions or display messages using dialog boxes. Common package-manager users install it so shell scripts can use widgets such as checklist, menu, gauge, inputbox, passwordbox, textbox, and yesno.
dialog matters to package people because it is one of the small tools that makes source builds, installers, and distribution scripts feel interactive while still being plain shell. Its long compatibility story explains why many packages also know about whiptail and other dialog-like front ends.
