I'm getting starting with GUIs in KSH, so this is my first example:

#! /usr/dt/bin/dtksh main() { XtInitialize TOPLEVEL dtHello DtHello "$@" XmCreateMessageDialog HELLO $TOPLEVEL hello \ dialogTitle:"DtHello" \ messageString:\ "$(print "Hello\nWorld")" XmMessageBoxGetChild HELP $HELLO\ DIALOG_HELP_BUTTON XtUnmanageChild $HELP XmMessageBoxGetChild CANCEL $HELLO\<\n> DIALOG_CANCEL_BUTTON XtUnmanageChild $CANCEL XtAddCallback $HELLO okCallback exit XtManageChild $HELLO XtMainLoop }

But when I try to launch my script, I get the next:

gui.ksh: syntax error at line 15: `newline' unexpected

The syntax error is in this line:

 DIALOG_CANCEL_BUTTON

And these are my references: reference 1 reference 2

Thanks in advance for any help.

Well... It was so easy, so I just needed check in this O'REILLY doc

I didn't know KSH is sensitive to spaces and tabulations. Anyway here's a solution if is useful to someone.

#! /usr/dt/bin/dtksh main() { XtInitialize TOPLEVEL dtHello DtHello "$@" XmCreateMessageDialog HELLO $TOPLEVEL hello \ dialogTitle: "First Window" \ messageString:"$(print "Hello\nWorld")" XmMessageBoxGetChild HELP $HELLO \ DIALOG_HELP_BUTTON XtUnmanageChild $HELP XmMessageBoxGetChild CANCEL $HELLO \ DIALOG_CANCEL_BUTTON XtUnmanageChild $CANCEL XtAddCallback $HELLO okCallback exit XtManageChild $HELLO XtMainLoop }

Thanks.
