# NAME

Tk::FBox - a file dialog

# SYNOPSIS

        use Tk::FBox;
        $file = $mw->FBox(...)->Show;

# DESCRIPTION

`Tk::FBox` is the dialog implementation behind the `getOpenFile` and `getSaveFile` method calls in the Unix/X11 world. As such, it supports all options for these methods and additionally:

-sortcmd => sub { $_[0] cmp $_[1] }
  Specified a callback for changing the sorting of the icons in the `IconList` widget. By default, perl's `cmp` operator will be used.

  From the source code:

        # Using -sortcmd is really strange :-(
        # $top->getOpenFile(-sortcmd => sub { package Tk::FBox; uc $b cmp uc $a});
        # or, un-perlish, but useable (now activated in code):
        # $top->getOpenFile(-sortcmd => sub { uc $_[1] cmp uc $_[0]});

  This is an experimental option!

-type => $type
  Type should be ``open'' (default) or ``save''.

-filter => $glob
  To be documented...

-force => $bool
  If true, then there will be no dialog if a file already exists.
