11
12        # do some stuff like creating your app's main $window then,

19        # ok, now we need to create a new directory (doesn't actually make

DESCRIPTION

24       This module provides a simple file chooser api that wraps
25       Gtk2::FileChooser objectively. The objective is a simple ways to prompt
26       a user to open or save a file.
27

OPTIONS

29       All public methods (and the entire class) support the following
30       options:
31
32       title => STRING
33           The text string to use as the title of the dialog window. Defaults
34           to either "Select" or "Create" based on the action context.
35
36       path => STRING
37           The path to a file or directory to initialize the dialog with.
38           Defaults to the current working directory.
39
40       parent_window => Gtk2::Window
41           Reference to the main application window.
42
43       destroy_with_parent => BOOL
44           When the parent_window is destroyed, what do we do? Defaults to
45           FALSE.
46
47       modal => BOOL
48           Does this dialog make the parent_window freeze while the dialog
49           exists.  Defaults to FALSE.
50
51       must_exist => BOOL
52           The end-user must supply a path to an existing file or directory.
53           Should the end-user provide a non-existant path, the dialog will be
54           respawned until an existing file is chosen. Defaults to FALSE.
55

PUBLIC METHODS

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