### 11`` Finder

( finder:dialog-parent-parameter )
→ ( or/c false/c ( is-a?/c dialog% ) ( is-a?/c frame% ))
( finder:dialog-parent-parameter parent) → void?
parent : ( or/c false/c ( is-a?/c dialog% ) ( is-a?/c frame% ))

This parameter determines the parent of the dialogs created by finder:get-file, finder:put-file, finder:common-get-file, finder:common-put-file, finder:common-get-file-list, finder:std-get-file, and finder:std-put-file.

( finder:default-extension ) → string?
( finder:default-extension extension) → void?
extension : string?

This parameter controls the default extension for the framework’s finder:put-file dialog. Its value gets passed as the default-extension argument to put-file.

Its default value is "".

( finder:default-filters ) → ( listof ( list/c string? string? ))
( finder:default-filters filters) → void?
filters : ( listof ( list/c string? string? ))

This parameter controls the default filters for the framework’s finder:put-file dialog. Its value gets passed as the default-filters argument to put-file.

Its default value is '(("Any" "*.*")).

This procedure queries the user for a single filename, using a platform-independent dialog box. Consider using finder:put-file instead of this function.

parent : ( or/c false/c ( is-a?/c top-level-window<%> )) = #f

This procedure queries the user for a single filename, using a platform-independent dialog box. Consider using finder:get-file instead of this function.

| parent |  | : |  | ( or/c ( is-a?/c top-level-window<%> ) false/c )
|  |  | = |  | ( finder:dialog-parent-parameter )

This procedure queries the user for a single filename, using a platform-dependent dialog box. Consider using finder:put-file instead of this function.

| parent |  | : |  | ( or/c ( is-a?/c top-level-window<%> ) false/c )
|  |  | = |  | ( finder:dialog-parent-parameter )

Queries the user for a filename.

If the result of ( preferences:get 'framework:file-dialogs) is 'std this calls finder:std-put-file, and if it is 'common, finder:common-put-file is called.

( finder:get-file | [ | directory |  |  |  |

| filter-msg |  | : |  | string?
|  |  | = |  | "That filename does not have the right form."

parent : ( or/c false/c ( is-a?/c top-level-window<%> )) = #f

Queries the user for a filename.

If the result of ( preferences:get 'framework:file-dialogs) is 'std this calls finder:std-get-file, and if it is 'common, finder:common-get-file is called.

( finder:common-get-file-list | [ | directory |

→ ( or/c ( listof path? ) false/c )

filter : ( or/c false/c byte-regexp? ) = #f

| filter-msg |  | : |  | string?
|  |  | = |  | "That filename does not have the right form."

parent : ( or/c false/c ( is-a?/c top-level-window<%> )) = #f

This procedure queries the user for a list of filenames, using a platform-independent dialog box.
