Thanks for all the help and pointers that people have given me, as you 
can see from my previous post things are going well. But now we have a 
much harder one.

This is a dialog box rendered in glorious ASCII, monospaced font a must.

What I want is.

I've noticed a message_config key as part of the TkDialog hash but can't 
see how to use it.

Can I modify a dialog to look like this or am I looking to create a 
whole new widget?

I will be going to get Mastering Perl/Tk at lunchtime, but any pointers 
would be nice.
