 Description

    XmCreateInformationDialog is a convenience creation function that creates
    a DialogShell and an unmanaged MessageBox child of the DialogShell.  An
    InformationDialog gives the user information, such as the status of an
    action.  It includes a symbol, a message, and three buttons.  The default
    symbol is a lower case ``i''.  The default button labels are ``OK'',
    ``Cancel'', and ``Help''.

    Use XtManageChild to pop up the InformationDialog (passing the MessageBox
    as the widget parameter); use XtUnmanageChild to pop it down.
