UI_add_input_string() and UI_add_verify_string() add a prompt to the UI,
as well as flags and a result buffer and the desired minimum and maximum
-sizes of the result. The given information is used to prompt for
-information, for example a password, and to verify a password (i.e. having
-the user enter it twice and check that the same string was entered twice).
-UI_add_verify_string() takes and extra argument that should be a pointer
-to the result buffer of the input string that it's supposed to verify, or
-verification will fail.

UI_add_input_boolean() adds a prompt to the UI that's supposed to be answered
in a boolean way, with a single character for yes and a different character
for no. A set of characters that can be used to cancel the prompt is given
-as well. The prompt itself is really divided in two, one part being the

descriptive text (given through the I<prompt> argument) and one describing
the possible answers (given through the I<action_desc> argument).
