## Dialogs

- Another convenient dialog is the text entry dialog that asks the user to supply a single line of text.

  >     wxTextEntryDialog* dialog = new wxTextEntryDialog(this,
  >        "What is your name?";
  >     dialog->ShowModal();
  >     string name = dialog->GetValue().c_str();
  >     dialog->Destroy();

- The `GetValue` function returns a `wxString`. That class also has a `c_str` function to convert to a C string.
