Detailed Description

Base class for all the standard, or "common" dialog classes.

A common dialog is one like a color dialog, or font selection dialog or open or save file dialog. These are generally provided by the windowing system, and these classes just provide convenient wrappers around them.

To display any common dialog, you simply call the execute() function. This funtion will return true if the user chose something, like a font, color, or filename, and false if the user canceled the dialog.
