A tiny, neat C library that portably invokes native file open, folder select, and save dialogs. Write dialog code once and have it pop up native dialogs on all supported platforms. Avoid linking large dependencies like wxWidgets and qt. Tested, works alongside libsdl on all platforms, for the game developers out there.

Features

  • Lean C API, static library -- no ObjC, no C++, no STL
  • Consistent UTF-8 support on all platforms
  • Simple universal file filter syntax
  • Multiple file selection support
  • GCC, Clang, Xcode, Mingw and Visual Studio supported
  • No third party dependencies for building or linking
  • Support for non-deprecated Cocoa APIs on OS X
  • Optional Zenity support on Linux to avoid linking GTK
