# tk common file dialogues
#
# this module provides interfaces to the native file dialogues
# available in Tk 4.2 and newer.
#
# written by Fredrik Lundh, May 1997.
#
#
# options (all have default values):
#
# - defaultextension: added to filename if not explicitly given
#
# - filetypes: sequence of (label, pattern) tuples. the same pattern
# may occur with several patterns. use "*" as pattern to indicate
# all files.
#
# - initialdir: initial directory. preserved by dialog instance.
#
# - initialfile: initial file (ignored by the open dialog). preserved
# by dialog instance.
#
# - parent: which window to place the dialog on top of
#
# - title: dialog title
#
