Re: How do I do this pop up?

Hi Todd,

for a popup such as this, you will probably need a full GUI library.

There are utilities to show very simple GUI dialogs like KDialog 
(probably linux-only), Zenity (two different windows ports exist, both 
have been abandoned almost a decade ago).

These are all inspired by "dialog" which is a console utility to build 
different kinds of little TUI dialogs for shell scripts. Presumably you 
don't want a TUI, though.

For a complicated dialog such as the one you've got in your screenshot, 
a simple "show a dialog from your shell script" utility will probably 
not allow you to put in the amount of customization you want.

We have GTK::Simple, which I think you've used before? Though you'll 
need to do something to distribute the necessary DLLs to the machine 
that will run your program. GTK::Simple links to these instructions for 
windows: https://github.com/finanalyst/GTK-Simple#windows

There's two sets of bindings that are more complete than GTK::Simple, 
which are XLiff's and MARTIMM's:

https://github.com/Xliff/p6-GtkPlus (plus a bunch of repos next to it on 
the same github user)

https://github.com/MARTIMM/gnome-gtk3

I haven't immediately found instructions or indication related to 
windows from these two repos, though.
