# whiptail has trouble being called in the foo=$(whiptail ...) fashion for
# some reason.  this is very annoying.  this means that we need to use
# temporary files to store the answers from the input and list based boxes
# and then read the answers into a REPLY variable.  that just really
# stinks, oh well, that's what you get when you have a weak link
# implementation...

# inputBox and passwordBox could be refactored to use a common function

# overridden to allow a derived implementation to change it's quoting
# mechanism to the standard double-quoting one.  it receives two
# arguements, the file that has the data and the box type.
