Yes, I think this could be added. Maybe it could look like -some_option_to_be_names => { ok => sub { ... }, cancel => \&cancel_sub, ... } Regards, Slaven -- Slaven Rezic - slaven <at> rezic <dot> de tkruler - Perl/Tk program for measuring screen distances http://ptktools.sourceforge.net/#tkruler

Another implementation proposal: introduce a function called option_dialog() which works like option_editor, but works like a dialog (that is, has an implicite -wait=>1) and returns the clicked button (like other dialog widgets do). Regards, Slaven
