Needs Expansion[edit]

This article is too short. It doesn't say anything. The description for what it is leaves the reader with more questions than answers. - KitchM (talk) 22:40, 6 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

About what? It is program that allows you to make simple dialogs from the command line, using the gtk+ toolkit, and includes a full demo on how to do this. I confess to being technically inclined, but I'm not sure what is missing. Bragr 01:32, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

In fairness, that Windows example was completely out of place. So I wrote a few lines about cross-platform compatibility and attached a different example script. I think it's better now.- Roccivic (talk) 20:00, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

thanks - looks good. It would be nice if the topic explained why it is notable Tedickey (talk) 20:36, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Frequently-updated, etc.[edit]

The dates/releases in the infobox are misleading. Zenity has its own versioning (and release dates), as noted in its source repository. As this time, the latest labeled release for example is 5 months old, rather than the 3 which the template produces. TEDickey (talk) 09:55, 22 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Some time ago I switched several GNOME-related articles to the GNOME's versions templates. This one is an interesting case though: the Zenity's version numbers are changed with the releases of GNOME if the new code come up. I don't think it's practical to have separate version tracking... — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 11:03, 22 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
