Common dialog classes and functions encapsulate commonly-needed dialog box requirements.
They are all `modal', grabbing the flow of control until the user dismisses the dialog,
to make them easy to use within an application.
Some dialogs have both platform-dependent and platform-independent implementations,

the generic classes and functions can stand in. For example, under MS Windows, wxColourDialog
uses the standard colour selector. There is also an equivalent called wxGenericColourDialog
for other platforms, and a macro defines wxColourDialog to be the same as wxGenericColourDialog

underlining, strikeout and text foreground colour. A sample of the
font is shown on a white area of the dialog box. Note that
