Hi,

At the end... whereis the last modified version? (maybe 2.8). In sf.net
is the 2.7+patches version, but not 2.8.

Yesterday, I downloaded the last version of 'dialog', and surprise...
has a lot of new feature, one a bit interesting: --editbox.

I think that it's util to add some new features, and in next days I will
write some code to extend the last 'pythondialog' from the last version
of dialog.
