tiny file dialogs (cross-platform C C++)
InputBox PasswordBox MessageBox ColorPicker
OpenFileDialog SaveFileDialog SelectFolderDialog
Native dialog library for WINDOWS MAC OSX GTK+ QT CONSOLE & more
SSH supported via automatic switch to console mode or X11 forwarding

one C file + a header (add them to your C or C++ project) with 8 functions:
- beep
- notify popup (tray)
- message & question
- input & password
- save file
- open file(s)
- select folder
- color picker

Complements OpenGL Vulkan GLFW GLUT GLUI VTK SFML TGUI
SDL Ogre Unity3d ION OpenCV CEGUI MathGL GLM CPW GLOW
Open3D IMGUI MyGUI GLT NGL STB & GUI less programs

NO INIT
NO MAIN LOOP
NO LINKING
NO INCLUDE

The dialogs can be forced into console mode

Windows (XP to 10) ASCII MBCS UTF-8 UTF-16
- native code & vbs create the graphic dialogs
- enhanced console mode can use dialog.exe from
http://andrear.altervista.org/home/cdialog.php
- basic console input

Unix (command line calls) ASCII UTF-8
- applescript, kdialog, zenity
- python (2 or 3) + tkinter + python-dbus (optional)
- dialog (opens a console if needed)
- basic console input
The same executable can run across desktops & distributions

C89 & C++98 compliant: tested with C & C++ compilers
VisualStudio MinGW-gcc GCC Clang TinyCC OpenWatcom-v2 BorlandC SunCC ZapCC
on Windows Mac Linux Bsd Solaris Minix Raspbian
using Gnome Kde Enlightenment Mate Cinnamon Budgie Unity Lxde Lxqt Xfce
WindowMaker IceWm Cde Jds OpenBox Awesome Jwm Xdm

Bindings for LUA and C# dll, Haskell
Included in LWJGL(java), Rust, Allegrobasic
