If you're asking how to adapt the File Selector stack for your own needs,
clone the original stack in the MC IDE, and save the clone as a substack of
your main stack, or save the clone as a main stack.  The relevant scripts
are stored in the card script of the stack -- you may want to update these
so the stack doesn't rely on dialogData for input.  The 'preOpenCard'
handler has the initialization code, 'refresh' updates the controls.
