So, it is early on, but I am starting a new project. I call it ashwid.

"A SHell [script] WIll Do"

For all the little scripts I have written over the years that occasionally replace very large, complicated GUI programs. Stuff like how I unload pictures from my DSLR, and how I pick which wireguard tunnel I want to bring up. Today's adventures with bsddialog were a part of making some of them friendly enough to share.

Specials thanks to @stefanoStefano Marinelli and @simmoril for their initial suggestions and support.
