<div dir="ltr">I tried to make a quick and dirty cross platform one with zenity that will work OOTB without worrying about the python environment setup. Didn't work as planned as the zenity portable app for windows seems a bit glitchy (there's no way to cancel I could find). Anyway, it should work OOTB on Gnome, and I share because it might be a handy way for someone to pass other parameters to a program.<div><br></div><div>Windows:</div><div>--------------------------------------------------
