DESCRIPTION

28       a user to open or save a file.

32       options:
33
34       title => STRING
35           The text string to use as the title of the dialog window. Defaults
36           to either "Open" or "Save" based on the action context.
37
38       path => STRING
39           The path to a file or directory to initialize the dialog with.
40           Defaults to the current working directory.
41
42       parent_window => Gtk2::Window
43           Reference to the main application window.
44
45       destroy_with_parent => BOOL
46           When the parent_window is destroyed, what do we do? Defaults to
47           FALSE.
48
49       modal => BOOL
50           Does this dialog make the parent_window freeze while the dialog
51           exists.  Defaults to FALSE.
52
53       must_exist => BOOL
54           The end-user must supply a path to an existing file or directory.
55           Should the end-user provide a non-existant path, the dialog will be
56           respawned until an existing file is chosen. Defaults to FALSE.
57

PUBLIC METHODS

59       OBJECT = new ( OPTIONS | PATH )
60           Create a Gtk2::FileChooserDialog with the options given and show it
61           to the end-user. Once the user has selected a file return only the
62           path to the file and clean up. In the special case of being passed
63           only one argument, all options are set to defaults and the one
64           argument is used as the path argument.
65
66       RESPONSE = ask_to_open ( OPTIONS | PATH )
67           Supports all the same arguments as new(). This will create a new
68           Gtk2::Ex::Dialogs::ChoosePreviewFile, with some specific defaults,
69           and return the user's response. In the event of being given only
70           one argument, it will be used as the path option.
71
72       RESPONSE = ask_to_save ( OPTIONS | PATH )
73           Supports all the same arguments as new(). This will create a new
74           Gtk2::Ex::Dialogs::ChoosePreviewFile, with some specific defaults,
75           and return the user's response. In the event of being given only
76           one argument, it will be used as the path option.
