want-gui-prompts: preference variable
Default value: 1
Bits in this variable control how Epsilon for Windows handles dialogs.
The 1 bit tells Epsilon to display Windows-style dialogs for its
prompts. Without it, Epsilon for Windows will avoid using Windows
dialogs in many commands, and will draw text boxes instead, similar to
the non-Windows versions of Epsilon.
Normally in a Windows dialog under Epsilon, the <Tab> key performs
completion, just as in non-Windows versions of Epsilon. You can set
the 2 bit to make it cycle through the dialog's controls instead, as
in other Windows programs.
Similarly, in a Windows dialog under Epsilon, the <Esc> key normally
performs completion. The 4 bit makes it cancel the current dialog
instead, as in other Windows programs. (Regardless of this setting,
pressing the abort key, normally Ctrl-g, always cancels the dialog.)
