DESCRIPTION

39       Curses::UI::Dialog::Dirbrowser is a dirbrowser dialog.  This type of
40       dialog can be used to select a directory, anywhere on the filesystem.
41
42       See exampes/demo-Curses::UI::Dialog::Dirbrowser in the distribution for
43       a short demo.
44

OPTIONS

46       ·   -title < TEXT >
47
48           Set the title of the dialog window to TEXT.
49
50       ·   -path < PATH >
51
52           Set the path to start with to PATH. If this path does not exist,
53           the filebrowser will start in the rootdirectory.
54
55       ·   -show_hidden < BOOLEAN >
56
57           If BOOLEAN has a true value, hidden files (the filename starts with
58           a dot) will also be shown. By default this option is set to false.
59

METHODS

61       ·   new ( OPTIONS )
62
63       ·   layout ( )
64
65       ·   draw ( BOOLEAN )
66
67       ·   focus ( )
68
69           These are standard methods. See Curses::UI::Container for an
70           explanation of these.
71
72       ·   get ( )
73
74           This method will return the complete path to the file that was
75           selected using the filebrowser. If no file was selected, this
76           method will return an undefined value.
77

SPECIAL BINDINGS

79       ·   escape
80
81           This will invoke the cancel button, so the filebrowser widget
82           returns without selecting any file.
83
84       ·   ~
85
86           If the directory- or filelistbox of the dialog window has the focus
87           and the tilde (~) button is pressed, the filebrowser will chdir to
88           the homedirectory of the current user.
