Ok am in it,thanks
If you don't have a file manager installed, the file chooser dialog won't work either because it depends on the system file manager which isn't installed. I think if you don't have a file manager on your system in 2022, you have greater things to worry about than if I can add a file chooser to Picocrypt 😅
No the file chooser doesn't depend on a file manager but in the case of picocrypt on GTK alone. I dragged an image from my browser to picocrypt, then clicked on "save" and i had the GTK file chooser to choose where to save the file. So it would work without installing anything more.
It's your project, you do as you wish ;-)
Ah okay, pardon my incompetence in Linux. Still though, I think not having a file manager is a 0.0001% sort of thing, so I don't think making the potentially bug-inducing changes would be worth the extremely small number of cases where it is useful. I appreciate your request though :P
Picocrypt is nice with its little GUI but it can't work if you can't drag'n'drop files. If you use a linux distro without a file manager you can't use it.
It would be quite nice to change the "clear" button to a "select" button which would open a file chooser. When the file is chosen, the button could become a "clear" button.
That way you won't have to change the window geometry or anything else.
