File input

The list input dialog requires that you give it a file input, with the ``-F'' flag. If you do not specify a file, it will use standard input (note: if you specify ``-F'' without a filename, which isnt necessary, it must be the last argument. This will be fixed shortly). The format of this file is one entry per line, blank lines should be ignored. Using stdin is just like using stdin for the file viewer.

Example input file:

item1
item2
item3
item4

Example command line:

opie-sh -i -l -L "Label" -t "Title" -F filename
