Another small plugin that gives you the standard win32 FILE selector, COLOR selector and a FONT selector.
As usual, the .dll file goes into your compiler/plugins-user folder.
And the .ini file goes into your editor/keywords folder.
This plugin took a long time in the creation and had a few bugs to iron out but with the brilliant help from IanM looking over my code and Resourceful for creating the first documentation for it, oh and the kick up the backside to get it working from a few people, I finally got it done.
The docs: (also in the attached download)

FILE SELECTOR NOTES:
OFN_ENABLESIZING 0x00800000
Enables the Explorer-style dialog box to be resized using either the mouse or the keyboard. By default, the Explorer-style Open and Save As dialog boxes allow the dialog box to be resized regardless of whether this flag is set. This flag is necessary only if you provide a hook procedure or custom template. The old-style dialog box does not permit resizing.
OFN_FILEMUSTEXIST 0x00001000
The user can type only names of existing files in the File Name entry field. If this flag is specified and the user enters an invalid name, the dialog box procedure displays a warning in a message box. If this flag is specified, the OFN_PATHMUSTEXIST flag is also used. This flag can be used in an Open dialog box. It cannot be used with a Save As dialog box.
OFN_NOCHANGEDIR 0x00000008
Restores the current directory to its original value if the user changed the directory while searching for files.
This flag is ineffective for GetOpenFileName.
OFN_NONETWORKBUTTON 0x00020000
Hides and disables the Network button.
OFN_PATHMUSTEXIST 0x00000800
The user can type only valid paths and file names. If this flag is used and the user types an invalid path and file name in the File Name entry field, the dialog box function displays a warning in a message box.
OFN_READONLY 0x00000001
Causes the Read Only check box to be selected initially when the dialog box is created. This flag indicates the state of the Read Only check box when the dialog box is closed.

W32 FSEL==int flag = W32 FSEL()

W32 SETCURRENTDIRECTORY = W32 SETCURRENTDIRECTORY dir$
W32 GETRELATIVEFILENAME==string = W32 GETRELATIVEFILENAME(currdir$,absfile$)

W32 FONTWEIGHT==wgt = W32 FONTWEIGHT()
W32 FONTITALIC==ita = W32 FONTITALIC()
W32 FONTNAME==font$ = W32 FONTNAME()
There\'s two things I am aware of that I need to do:
1. Create a Save / Load separate dialogues
2. Work out the formula to convert the fonts height into pixels for DBP to use properly. (fixed)
As again I hope this comes in handy. And I doubt that I will ever get round to working with a GUI system for DBP after the trouble I had with this, but then again, there\'s lots of very good GUI already out there...
Mental arithmetic? Me? (That's for computers) I can't subtract a fart from a plate of beans!
Warning! May contain Nuts!
