It defines, among other things, a prompt message for a yes or no answer, text for help and error messages, and a default value (which is returned if the user responds with a RETURN). .sp .LP All messages are limited in length to 70 characters and are formatted automatically. Any white space used in the definition (including newline) is stripped. The \fB-W\fR option cancels the automatic formatting. When a tilde is placed at the beginning or end of a message definition, the default text is inserted at that point, allowing both custom text and the default text to be displayed. .sp .LP If the prompt, help or error message is not defined, the default message (as defined under \fBNOTES\fR) is displayed. .sp .LP Three visual tool modules are linked to the \fBckyorn\fR command. They are \fBerryorn\fR (which formats and displays an error message), \fBhelpyorn\fR (which formats and displays a help message), and \fBvalyorn\fR (which validates a response). These modules should be used in conjunction with \fBFACE\fR objects. In this instance, the \fBFACE\fR object defines the prompt. .SH OPTIONS .sp .LP The following options are supported: .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB-d\fR\fI default\fR\fR .ad .RS 14n Defines the default value as \fIdefault\fR. The default is not validated and so does not have to meet any criteria. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB-e\fR \fIerror\fR\fR .ad .RS 14n Defines the error message as \fIerror\fR. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB-h\fR \fIhelp\fR\fR .ad .RS 14n Defines the help messages as \fIhelp\fR. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB-k\fR\fI pid\fR\fR .ad .RS 14n Specifies that process \fBID\fR \fIpid\fR is to be sent a signal if the user chooses to abort. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB-p\fR\fI prompt\fR\fR .ad .RS 14n Defines the prompt message as \fIprompt\fR. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB-Q\fR\fR .ad .RS 14n Specifies that quit will not be allowed as a valid response. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB-s\fR \fIsignal\fR\fR .ad .RS 14n Specifies that the process \fBID\fR \fIpid\fR defined with the \fB-k\fR option is to be sent signal \fIsignal\fR when quit is chosen. If no signal is specified, \fBSIGTERM\fR is used. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB-W\fR\fI width\fR\fR .ad .RS 14n Specifies that prompt, help and error messages will be formatted to a line length of \fIwidth\fR. .RE .SH OPERANDS .sp .LP The following operand is supported: .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fIinput\fR\fR .ad .RS 9n Input to be verified as \fBy\fR, \fByes\fR, or \fBn\fR, \fBno\fR (in any combination of upper- and lower-case letters). .RE .SH EXIT STATUS .sp .LP The following exit values are returned: .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB0\fR\fR .ad .RS 5n Successful execution. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB1\fR\fR .ad .RS 5n \fBEOF\fR on input, or negative width on \fB-W\fR option, or usage error. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB2\fR\fR .ad .RS 5n Usage error. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB3\fR\fR .ad .RS 5n User termination (quit). .RE .SH SEE ALSO .sp .LP \fBattributes\fR(5) .SH NOTES .sp .LP The default prompt for \fBckyorn\fR is: .sp .in +2 .nf Yes or No [y,n,?,q]: .fi .in -2 .sp .sp .LP The default error message is: .sp .in +2 .nf ERROR - Please enter yes or no. .fi .in -2 .sp .sp .LP The default help message is: .sp .in +2 .nf To respond in the affirmative, enter y, yes, Y, or YES. To respond in the negative, enter n, no, N, or NO. .fi .in -2 .sp .sp .LP When the quit option is chosen (and allowed), \fBq\fR is returned along with the return code \fB3\fR. The \fBvalyorn\fR module will not produce any output. It returns \fB0\fR for success and non-zero for failure.
