man Tk::FBox () - a file dialog

NAME

Tk::FBox - a file dialog

SYNOPSIS

    use Tk::FBox;
    $file = $mw->FBox(...)->Show;

DESCRIPTION

CWTk::FBox is the dialog implementation behind the CWgetOpenFile and CWgetSaveFile method calls in the Unix/X11 world. As such, it supports all options for these methods and additionally: Specified a callback for changing the sorting of the icons in the CWIconList widget. By default, perl's CWcmp operator will be used. From the source code:

  # Using -sortcmd is really strange :-(
  # $top->getOpenFile(-sortcmd => sub { package Tk::FBox; uc $b cmp uc $a});
  # or, un-perlish, but useable (now activated in code):
  # $top->getOpenFile(-sortcmd => sub { uc $_[1] cmp uc $_[0]});
This is an experimental option! Type should be open (default) or save. To be documented... If true, then there will be no dialog if a file already exists.
