<DIV><FONT size=2>Hello,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Similar to how "ask file" allows a user to select a file, is
there a built-in way of allowing users to select a directory? If not, is there a
user-friendly alternative? I was looking at the "file selector" substack, but
the ".." higher-level symbol is sure to scare people off.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>The reason for needing the directory rather than a specific
file is for a stack that manipulates images. After a user selects whichever
directory they've put their jpg/gif files, those file names will be
automatically displayed in a clickable list of names.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Thanks.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Cheers,</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>P.S. Thank you, too, for the lesson about the CR vs LF
end-of-line difference. Of the various kind advice offered, I went with the "get
a new text editor" option. A 2-year Win-to-Linux mystery
resolved!</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
