.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
Curses::UI::Dialog::Status is not really a dialog, since
the user has no way of interacting with it. It is merely
a way of presenting status information to the user of 
your program.
.PP
See exampes/demo\-Curses::UI::Dialog::Status in the 
distribution for a short demo.
