Directory selection dialogby foxcorner (Initiate) |

foxcorner has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hello venerable monks,
I am going crazy trying to find a directory selection dialog for Perl on Windows (using Tk or Win32) which has the following characteristics: * Must allow users to select directories (this rules out getOpenFile) * Must allow users to create a new directory (this rules out most of the other Tk widgets, and also Win32::FileOp::BrowseForFolder) * Must actually work with recent Tk (this rules out Tk::FileDialog. Sadly, the "replacement" Tk::JFileDialog loses the ability to create a new directory...) * Should look reasonably nice on Windows XP (this rules out the *horrible* DirSelect widget, which my users will have no idea how to use) I have failed to find *anything* that fits the bill! The ideal solution would be an implementation of getOpenFile which allows the selection of directories. Is there such a thing? Or anything that would work?
Thanks,
