Provision of a CONFIRM facility

Asked by Tracy Gilmore

I have a large script which is punctuated with PopUp statements to enable a human observer to keep the screen active (and them awake).
Rather than just issuing a prompt it would be better if I could provide an escape option by way of a CONFIRM command (akin to the JavaScript CONFIRM command), that offers OK and CANCEL buttons and returns a Boolean.

Prompt "Press OK to continue, Cancel to terminate).

use the input() feature instead.

The input() feature provides the user with an input text box as well as the OK/Cancel buttons. In the described scenario, whilst it would provide the facility I require, the input feature text field is unnecessary and distracting. I remain on the opinion that the Sikuli language is missing a Confirm() feature - but will close the question.

Since the input() has a default value, you can put an "anti-distracting" text into the input field ;-)

Nevertheless, I put it on the list to add an option for that to the popup().
