+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBzenity\fP is a program that will display GTK+ dialogs, and return

+from the user, from all manner of shell scripts.
+.PP
+For example, \fBzenity --question\fP will return either 0 or 1,
+depending on whether the user pressed \fIYes\fP or \fINo\fP. \fBzenity
+--entry\fP will output on standard output what the user typed into the
+text entry field.
+.PP
+Comprehensive documentation is available in the GNOME Help Browser,
+under \fIGNOME/Utilities\fP.
