Thanks again and sorry that I missed to look into ui.rb  but I only  
followed tm_dialog's usage hints:

Alert Options:
  -e, --alert                  Show alert. Parameters: 'title',  
'message', 'buttons'
                               'alertStyle' -- can be 'warning,'  
'informational',
                               'critical'.  Returns the button index.
