#12Ok I feel like an idiot, but where is the code in the repo that produces the GUI - ie where is the Suitcase code?

"Xdialog is designed to be a drop in replacement for the "dialog" or "cdialog" programs. It converts any terminal based program into a program with an X-windows interface. The dialogs are easier to see and use while adding even more functionalities (e.g. with the treeview, the file selector, the edit box, the range box, the help button/box). Because Xdialog uses GTK+, it will also match your desktop theme."

I guess it isn't open source ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Strange how GitHub has apparently become the default distribution platform

#17Earlier quoted context omitted.
This also works on Linux. Edit: my mistake, no it doesn't. Apologies.
where do you see that? theres not even code in this repo, and the only release is a dmg file
Right there in the demo, Ubuntu windows.
Edit: never mind, my apologies. It's the dark theme of Mac OS.

#19Who else remembers Commando in the Macintosh Programmer’s Workshop? That was a long time ago, but then the world moved in a different direction. It’s interesting that this sort of thing has been out of fashion for so long. I wonder if it will come back.

#20Super cool. Reminds me of "platypus" - a similar tool I use frequently: https://sveinbjorn.org/platypus
