This is beyond what I can explain as you these are fundamental characteristcs
of the shell and not Gtkdialog, so I recommend reading this document:
http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/subshells.html
"Variables in a subshell are not visible outside the block of code in the
subshell. They are not accessible to the parent process, to the shell that
launched the subshell. These are, in effect, variables local to the child
process."
When Gtkdialog executes the shell commands in <action> and <input> statements
it does so in a subshell, therefore to communicate information between the
subshell and the parent shell -- the shell that originally executed Gtkdialog
-- requires the use of a file. You call it a "workaround", other people might
call it the solution.

You've created another "issue" since I replied here so I take it this is
finished with and I'll close it.
