A Tcl/Tk version of the svDialogs file open dialog box

# S3 method for tcltkGUI
dlg_open(
  default = "",
  title = if (multiple) "Select files" else "Select file",
  multiple = FALSE,
  filters = dlg_filters["All", ],
  ...,
  gui = .GUI
)

Arguments

default: The default file to start with (use /dir/* or /dir/*.* to start in a given directory).
title: A title to display on top of the dialog box.
multiple: Is a multiple selection of files allowed?
filters: A specification of file filters as a nx2 matrix, or a character string with even number of items. First items is the label, second one is the filter. See dlg_filters for examples. This is currently ignored on MacOS and RStudio, since such kind of filter is defined differently there.
...: Not used yet.
gui: The 'gui' object concerned by this dialog box.

Value

The path to the file to open.

Examples

library(svDialogstcltk) # Tcl/Tk dialog boxes are now used by default
if (FALSE) {
# Choose one R file
dlg_open(title = "Select one R file", filters = dlg_filters[c("R", "All"), ])$res
# Choose several files
dlg_open(multiple = TRUE)$res
