This gives scripts on Windows a consistent way allow users to select files. The current version requires .NET 4.

This is a Windows app. The screenshots show it running in Wine on Linux which is how Windows apps are run on Linux. .NET 4 has to be installed in a 32-bit Wine for it to work on Linux.

If you have trouble with it, please open a ticket and/or send me an e-mail.

If you decide to use it, I would love to hear about it. Send me some feedback, good or bad.
