Great I used to use zenity but this has got some nice extras.
Been using it for a while and it's a rock solid app 5*

Voted up.

Hi, thanks for the very cool app.
I made a shell-script based program (see http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/zonColor+Themes+Pack?content=156189) that heavily use Zenity for GUI dialog. That because it is there by default in GNOME desktop. I wish I can use YAD instead, but I dont want to bother users installing it.
Is it possible to include (embed?) YAD in my program so I can just call it in my script without users having to install it separately?
Thanks again.

theoretically yes. yad doesn't use any of the additional files such as gtkbuilder ui. so you can embed yad's binary to your script for example with base64 and then unpack it on the target host
