Opens a dialog box displaying the question and an area to type the answer. Answer reports what was typed in the dialog box. If you write a very long question, only the part that fits will be displayed. See answer.
To reposition and resize the default alert box, use the set command. The position is in screen coordinates; [0 0] is the top, left corner. The minimum size of the alert box is [150 100].
