dialog inputbox - a default input value

[sebastian.s]

Say i want to create a simple inputbox like this:


dialog --inputbox "Please enter a hostname" 10 60Is there a way to get a default value already filled in the input field? Say i would like it to say "ubuntu" in the input field. Thanks in advanced :smile:

It's the fourth parameter


dialog --inputbox "Please enter a hostname" 10 60 ubuntu
