#!/bin/bash
whiptail --title "51cto-mailinpaopao" --msgbox "5c1to-Create a message box . Choose Ok to continue." 10 60
运行shell脚本，效果如图：
2、创建一个可选择yes or no 的消息框
#!/bin/bash
if (whiptail --title "Test Yes/No Box" --yesno "Choose between Yes and No." 10 60) then
echo "You chose Yes. Exit status was $?."
else
echo "You chose No. Exit status was $?."
fi
运行shell脚本效果如图：
还一种写法
#!/bin/bash
if (whiptail --title "Which one do you like !!" --yes-button "51cto" --no-button "mailinpaopao" --yesno "Which one do you like? " 10 60) then echo "You chose 51cto Exit status was $?."
else
echo "You chose mailinpaopao Exit status was $?."
fi
效果如图：
3、创建一个表单输入框
#!/bin/bash
PET=$(whiptail --title "test an input" --inputbox "What is your name?" 10 60 NULL 3>&1 1>&2 2>&3)
exitstatus=$?
if [ $exitstatus = 0 ]; then
echo "Your name is:" $PET
else
echo "You chose Cancel."
fi
效果如图：
4、创建一个密码框
#!/bin/bash
PASSWORD=$(whiptail --title "Test a password input" --passwordbox "Enter your password and choose Ok to continue." 10 60 3>&1 1>&2 2>&3)
exitstatus=$?
if [ $exitstatus = 0 ]; then
echo "Your password is:" $PASSWORD
else
echo "You chose Cancel."
fi
效果如图：
5、创建一个菜单栏来做选择
#!/bin/bash
OPTION=$(whiptail --title "Select your language" --menu "Choose your option" 15 60 4 \"1" "English" \"2" "French" \"3" "Chinese" \"4" "Japanese" 3>&1 1>&2 2>&3)
exitstatus=$?
if [ $exitstatus = 0 ]; then
echo "Your chosen option:" $OPTION
else
echo "You chose Cancel."
fi
效果图：
6、创建radiolist对话框（这个做的就有点无聊了）
#!/bin/bash
DISTROS=$(whiptail --title "Test Checklist Dialog" --radiolist \"What is the Linux distro of your choice?" 15 60 4 \"debian" " Debian" OFF \"ubuntu" " Ubuntu" OFF \"centos" " CentOS" ON \"mint" " Mint" OFF 3>&1 1>&2 2>&3)
exitstatus=$?
if [ $exitstatus = 0 ]; then
echo "The chosen distro is:" $DISTROS
else
echo "You chose Cancel."
fi
效果图：
7、创建一个进度条
#!/bin/bash
{ for ((i = 0; i <= 100; i+=20));
do sleep 1
echo $i
done
} | whiptail --gauge "Please wait while installing" 6 60 0
效果（手速有限，可以自己体验，很有趣）：
