This crate provides a simple to use abstraction over the Open and Save dialogs in the Windows API, usable under both GNU and MSVC toolchains, with minimal dependencies.

## Examples

### Standard open dialog

```rust

let dialog_result = wfd::open_dialog(Default::default())?;

```

### Folder picker open dialog

```rust

use wfd::{DialogParams};

let params = DialogParams {

    options: FOS_PICKFOLDERS,

    .. Default::default()

};

let dialog_result = wfd::open_dialog(params)?;

```

### Save dialog with custom file extension filters

```rust

use wfd::{DialogParams};

let params = DialogParams {

    title: "Select an image to open",

    file_types: vec![("JPG Files", "*.jpg;*.jpeg"), ("PNG Files", "*.png"), ("Bitmap Files", "*.bmp")],

    default_extension: "jpg",

    ..Default::default()

};

let dialog_result = wfd::save_dialog(params)?;

```
