How can I create a widget that is like the PromptDialog (created with
XmCreatePromptDialog), except that I don't want to have to pop it up
with a pushbutton?  In other words, I want the entire program to be
this prompt; when the user clicks on "ok" or hits return, I'll exit.

I tried taking the pushbutton out, and managing the promptdialog widget
after creating it, but that failed due to "zero width/height for the
toplevel widget."  I've also tried a few other variations, but seem to
be getting nowhere -- I keep getting core dumps or working programs that
don't look right.
