# Class GTK2.FileChooserDialog

Description

  GtkFileChooserDialog should be used to retrieve file or directory names from the user. It will create a new dialog window containing a directory list, and a file list corresponding to the current working directory. The filesystem can be navigated using the directory list, the drop-down history menu, or the TAB key can be used to navigate using filename completion common in text based editors such as emacs and jed.

  The default filename can be set using set_filename() and the selected filename retrieved using get_filename().

  Use complete() to display files that match a given pattern. This can be used for example, to show only *.txt files, or only files beginning with gtk*.

  Simple file operations; create directory, delete file, and rename file, are available from buttons at the top of the dialog. These can be hidden using hide_fileop_buttons() and shown again using show_fileop_buttons().

  `GTK2.FileChooserDialog("File selector", 0, GTK2.FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_OPEN, ({(["text":"Transmogrify", "id":17]), (["text":"Never mind", "id":42])}))`
