RequestChoice - Asks for input via a requester

TITLE/A, BODY/A, GADGETS/A/M, PUBSCREEN/K

TITLE     - Title string of the requester                                      
BODY      - Body string of the requester
            Linefeeds can be embedded using *N
GADGETS   - Gadgets of the requester (see below)
            The gadget labels are separated with spaces
PUBSCREEN - Optional: name of the publicscreen to use

The number of the selected gadget is printed as a result to the console. For evaluation in a script file, you can redirect this output into an environment variable. If the requester cannot be opened, the command generates a return code of 20.

The PUBSCREEN argument allows the requester to open its window on a public screen.


Example:

MorphOS:> RequestChoice >ENV:rcnum "New Title" "This is my requester*NSelect a gadget" "OK" "Maybe" "Cancel"

ENV:rcnum contains 0, 1, or 2 after a gadget is selected. The script can use this value to control its later execution.
