Depends how portable you want it. Under Ubuntu you could get away with:

  # Text dialog
  if system('whiptail','--title','AARGH','--yesno','Delete all your 
files?','7','40')
    raise "Ha ha!"
  end

  # GTK+ dialog
  if system('zenity','--question','--text','Delete all your files?')
    raise "Gotcha"
  end

"dialog" is another, older package for text-based dialogs.
