DESCRIPTION

       The  iwidgets::fileselectiondialog  command creates a file selection dialog similar to the
       OSF/Motif standard composite widget.  The fileselectiondialog is derived from  the  Dialog
       class  and  is composed of a FileSelectionBox with attributes set to manipulate the dialog
       buttons.

METHODS

       The iwidgets::fileselectiondialog  command  creates  a  new  Tcl  command  whose  name  is
       pathName.   This  command  may be used to invoke various operations on the widget.  It has
       the following general form: pathName option ?arg arg ...?  Option and the  args  determine
       the   exact   behavior   of   the  command.   The  following  commands  are  possible  for
       fileselectiondialog widgets:

ASSOCIATED METHODS

INHERITED METHODS

       add             buttonconfigure                defaulthide
       insert          invoke         show

WIDGET-SPECIFIC METHODS

       pathName cget option
              Returns the current value of the configuration option given by option.  Option  may
              have any of the values accepted by the iwidgets::fileselectiondialog 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 available 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 iwidgets::fileselectiondialog command.
