Dialog Section

The dialog section is framed by the keywords @DIALOG and @ENDDIALOG. This section defines the layout of the dialogs executed during an attended product installation. The dialog section consists of the entries listed below. For the detailed description of an entry see the appropriate keyword description.

The same definitions are used for Java- and VT100-based dialogs. The Installer manages the proper visualization on the target computer.
