SYNOPSIS
use Curses::UI;
my $cui = new Curses::UI;

my $dialog = $win->add(
'mydialog', 'Dialog::Dirbrowser'
);
$dialog->focus;
my $file = $dialog->get();
$win->delete('mydialog');
# The easy way (see Curses::UI documentation).

$file = $cui->filebrowser();
$file = $cui->loadfilebrowser();
$file = $cui->savefilebrowser();
DESCRIPTIONCurses::UI::Dialog::Dirbrowser is a dirbrowser dialog. This type of
dialog can be used to select a directory, anywhere on the filesystem.
See exampes/demo-Curses::UI::Dialog::Dirbrowser in the distribution for
a short demo.
OPTIONS
· -title < TEXT >
Set the title of the dialog window to TEXT.
· -path < PATH >
Set the path to start with to PATH. If this path does not exist,
the filebrowser will start in the rootdirectory.
· -show_hidden < BOOLEAN >
If BOOLEAN has a true value, hidden files (the filename starts with
a dot) will also be shown. By default this option is set to false.
METHODS
· new ( OPTIONS )
· layout ( )
· draw ( BOOLEAN )
· focus ( )
These are standard methods. See Curses::UI::Container for an
explanation of these.
· get ( )
This method will return the complete path to the file that was
selected using the filebrowser. If no file was selected, this
method will return an undefined value.
SPECIAL BINDINGS
· escape
This will invoke the cancel button, so the filebrowser widget
returns without selecting any file.
· ~
If the directory- or filelistbox of the dialog window has the focus
and the tilde (~) button is pressed, the filebrowser will chdir to
the homedirectory of the current user.
