_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
The tixExFileSelectDialog command creates a new window (given by the
pathName argument) and makes it into a ExFileSelectDialog widget. Addi‐
tional options, described above, may be specified on the command line
or in the option database to configure aspects of the ExFileSelectDia‐
log such as its cursor and relief.
The ExFileSelectDialog widget provides an convenient method for the
user to select files. The style of the ExFileSelectDialog widget is
very similar to the standard file dialog in MS Windows 3.1.
WIDGET COMMANDS
The tixExFileSelectDialog command creates a new Tcl command whose name
is the same as the path name of the ExFileSelectDialog's window. This
command may be used to invoke various operations on the widget. It has
the following general form:
pathName option ?arg arg ...?
PathName is the name of the command, which is the same as the ExFileSe‐
lectDialog widget's path name. Option and the args determine the exact
behavior of the command. The following commands are possible for
ExFileSelectDialog widgets:
pathName cget option
Returns the current value of the configuration option given by
option. Option may have any of the values accepted by the tixEx‐
FileSelectDialog command.
pathName configure ?option? ?value option value ...?
Query or modify the configuration options of the widget. If no
option is specified, returns a list describing all of the avail‐
able options for pathName (see Tk_ConfigureInfo for information
on the format of this list). If option is specified with no
value, then the command returns a list describing the one named
option (this list will be identical to the corresponding sublist
of the value returned if no option is specified). If one or
more option-value pairs are specified, then the command modifies
the given widget option(s) to have the given value(s); in this
case the command returns an empty string. Option may have any
of the values accepted by the tixExFileSelectDialog command.
pathName popdown

pathName popup

the subwidget of the specified name.

widget will be called with these options.
