use this as reference [My projects library #4! Gallery Megathread - #2 by CodeMasterX](https://discourse.processing.org/t/my-projects-library-4-gallery-megathread/31103/2)

I’ll post the actual program a bit later

Here:

```auto
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
String pLines = "Welcome to quasi console!\n ";
void setup() {
  String strInp = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,"Please name the file! (FILETYPE: .png" );
  println(strInp+".png");
}
void draw() {
}

```
