Hmmm I'v been toying with an idea...

It's mostly a backburner type thing...

BUT Couldn't the current query functions be expanded to generate a
dialog if there's some var SET/UNSET.

Hmmm acctually a parser for CONFIGURE would be a better idea....

which parses all the relevant data...
i.e. what type of query is requested, what are it's parameters
and then adds that to a dialog.

Lists and such as submenus, Y/N queries to main menu.
The main problem I would see is logic in CONFIGURE(if's and so on)
which would need to be handled as well.

Basicaly the parser would be invoked if there's a var SET/UNSET

NOTE this is only a brain storming session and yes I know sorcery team
has enough to do.

On a side note.

IMHO All spells using dialog(with the possible exception of the linux spell)
should give an option to use dialog GUI or to use normal query's.
