Description
inputPopupF is a general dialog popup fudget. An argument fudget determines
what kind of dialog is created. The popup window contains an
explanatory message, whatever the argument fudget shows, an OK button
and a Cancel button.
Input
Input messages are pairs of an optional prompt and and optional
message to the argument fudget. One or both of these can be
Nothing. Sending a message to inputPopupF causes the window to
appear on the screen.

The latest value received from the argument fudget is output when
the OK button is pressed, paired with the latest input.
Nothing is output if the cancel button is pressed.
The window disappears when one of the buttons is pressed.

a degenerate case, it can also just show some information
that the user must confirm or cancel.
default :: Maybe b- Default value that will be output if the user immediately
presses Ok. If the argument is

must supply a value, i.e., there is no default.
