   Your error dialog, needs some choices. This is a crude example.   
      
               else   
                   # zenity --error --text="Error renaming $file to $new_name"   
   --width=200   
                   zenity --question --text "Error renaming $file to $new_name"   
   --ok-label="Continue" --cancel-label="Cancel"   
                   if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then   
                      exit 1   
                   fi   
               fi   
      
   In the picture, I clicked "Continue" the first time, and "Cancel" the   
   second time the dialog appeared.
