VARBTYPE can be any of the following words:
      define   - show defined strings (see [DEFINE][2])
      number   - show number variables
      string   - show string and string list variables
      array    - show array variables
      matrix   - show matrix variables
      image    - show image variables
      vector   - show vector variables
      solid    - show solid variables
      declare  - show all variables

The SHOW DIALOG command displays the contents of an interactive menu in a text
format suitable for re-creating that menu. In other words, if the output of this
command is stored in a text file, that file could be read to re-create the entire
menu. For this command DLOGNAME is the name of the stored dialog, and the FLG argument
has the following meaning (combine by adding):
         1 - only the stored dialog display (i.e., Macintosh DLOG and
             DITL resources) are listed -- otherwise the stored menu
             command and help strings will also be shown (see [MENU][2])
         2 - scale the widget rectangle dimensions appropriately for
             moving the dialog to an XWindows program

The optional scaling factors XSCAL, YPOS_SCAL, and YSIZ_SCAL can be used to resize the
dialog display. Note that the vertical widget position and size can be scaled independently
(the overall dialog height is scaled using YPOS_SCAL). By default all scale factors are 1.0,
but if FLG&2 then XSCAL=1.4 and YSIZ_SCAL=0.9.
