## Subprograms

    function File_Selection_Dialog
      (Title              :        Glib.UTF8_String
                           := "Select File";
       Default_Dir        :        String := "";
       Dir_Only           :        Boolean := False;
       Must_Exist         :        Boolean := False)
       return String;
| Open a file selection dialog and make it modal. Return when either the Cancel button is clicked or when a file is selected. Default_Dir is the directory to display in dialog initially. Note that it must end with a directory separator ('/' or '\', depending on your system). You can use GNAT.Os_Lib.Directory_Separator to get the correct value for your system. If Must_Exist is True, then the file (or directory if Dir_Only is True) must exist. If Dir_Only is True, then the dialog is modified so that the user can only choose a directory name, but not a file name. The value returned is the name of the file selected, or "" if none.
