## Description

prompt.h declares two predefined prompter functions which applications can use instead of providing their own. These should suffice for most command-line applications. Authors of graphical applications are encouraged to supply graphical implementations.

## Details

### lu_prompt_console ()

    gboolean            lu_prompt_console                   (struct lu_prompt *prompts,
                                                             int count,
                                                             gpointer callback_data,
                                                             struct lu_error **error);

Prompts the user using a text console.

`prompts` : | An array of lu_prompt structures.
`count` : | The number of elements in the `prompts` array.
`callback_data` : | Ignored.
`error` : | The location to store error information in the event of an error.
Returns : | A gboolean indicating success or failure.

### lu_prompt_console_quiet ()

    gboolean            lu_prompt_console_quiet             (struct lu_prompt *prompts,
                                                             int count,
                                                             gpointer callback_data,
                                                             struct lu_error **error);

Prompts the user using a text console. Unlike `lu_prompt_console()`, this function will not prompt users for a question for which the calling application or module supplies a default, and will simply return the default.

`prompts` : | An array of lu_prompt structures.
`count` : | The number of elements in the `prompts` array.
`callback_data` : | Ignored.
`error` : | The location to store error information in the event of an error.
Returns : | A gboolean indicating success or failure.
