DESCRIPTION
Curses::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.
