+// This is currently disabled on Windows because it doesn't work.
+// Current issues:
+//   * On Windows Vista+ the mouse cursor freezes when the dialog is
+//     opened. This is probably some conflict with SDL (might be
+//     resolved by opening the dialog in a separate thread so that
+//     TXT_UpdateScreen can be run in the background).
+//   * On Windows XP the program exits/crashes when the dialog is
+//     closed.

 // Windows code. Use comdlg32 to pop up a dialog box.
