WxGetTextFromUser
From WxWiki
wxGetTextFromUser displays an dialog in which the user may type in text. It is a dialog function.
[edit] Example
wxString sNewValue = wxGetTextFromUser(wxT("The message"), wxTr("title"), sCurrentValue);
[edit] Issues
It looks like the message string interpretation is buggy. For exemple "Rename to :" will diplay "Rename". I have solved this by adding a trailling character : "Rename to : _" will be displayed as "Rename to :" (note the space between ':' and '_'). (seen on Debian Etch with libwxgtk-2.6.3.2.1.5)
