ModernDialogs (Cross-platform Linux, Windows C++17)
OpenFileDialog, SaveFileDialog, SelectFolderDialog & MessageBox
Supports ASCII & UTF-8
## Information
### Windows
On Windows ModernDialogs uses the WinAPI for every dialog.
### Linux
On Linux the dialogs are created by using one of the following packages if installed:
- KDialog
- Zenity
- MateDialog
- Shellementary
- Qarma
- Yad
- TKinter3
If none of these packages are installed then you will get an empty string, a vector of empty strings, or a `MD::Selection::Error` as the return value depending on the called function.
