+Pops up a file selector box. In Windows and GTK2.4+, this is the common
+file selector dialog. In X, this is a file selector box with somewhat less
+functionality. The path and filename are distinct elements of a full file pathname.
If path is ``", the current directory will be used. If filename is ``",
no default filename will be supplied. The wildcard determines what files
are displayed in the file selector, and file extension supplies a type
extension for the required filename. Flags may be a combination of wxOPEN,
-wxSAVE, wxOVERWRITE\_PROMPT, wxFILE\_MUST\_EXIST, wxMULTIPLE or 0.
+wxSAVE, wxOVERWRITE\_PROMPT, wxHIDE\_READONLY, wxFILE\_MUST\_EXIST,
+wxMULTIPLE, wxCHANGE\_DIR or 0.
Both the X and Windows versions implement a wildcard filter. Typing a
filename containing wildcards (*, ?) in the filename text item, and
types of file with a description for each, such as:
\begin{verbatim}
- "BMP files (*.bmp)|*.bmp|GIF files (*.gif)|*.gif"
+ "BMP and GIF files (*.bmp;*.gif)|*.bmp;*.gif|PNG files (*.png)|*.png"
\end{verbatim}
It must be noted that wildcard support in the native Motif file
\twocolitem{{\bf wxOPEN}}{This is an open dialog.}
\twocolitem{{\bf wxSAVE}}{This is a save dialog.}
\twocolitem{{\bf wxOVERWRITE\_PROMPT}}{For save dialog only: prompt for a confirmation if a file will be overwritten.}
+\twocolitem{{\bf wxHIDE\_READONLY}}{Do not display the checkbox to toggle display of read-only files. Deprecated in 2.6; the checkbox is never shown.}
+\twocolitem{{\bf wxFILE\_MUST\_EXIST}}{The user may only select files that actually exist.}
\twocolitem{{\bf wxMULTIPLE}}{For open dialog only: allows selecting multiple files.}
\twocolitem{{\bf wxCHANGE\_DIR}}{Change the current working directory to the directory where the file(s) chosen by the user are.}
