How to pop up a message box?

Hey guys!
Any idea to pop up a message box with SDL?

Hi,

if you’re on Windows you can call Win32 API directly and use function
called MessageBox()

If you want some cross-platform solution, you might want to display
your custom message box in your SDL window…

I wrote a solution for the 3 major OSes in ioquake3. Look for Sys_Dialog
in the following files:

http://svn.icculus.org/quake3/trunk/code/sys/sys_unix.c?revision=1773&view=markup
