'\"
'\" .AP type name in/out [indent]
'\" Start paragraph describing an argument to a library procedure.
'\" type is type of argument (int, etc.), in/out is either "in", "out",

'\"
'\" .AS [type [name]]
'\" Give maximum sizes of arguments for setting tab stops. Type and
'\" name are examples of largest possible arguments that will be passed
'\" to .AP later. If args are omitted, default tab stops are used.

.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
The \fBiwidgets::fileselectionbox\fR command creates a file selection box similar
to the OSF/Motif standard Xmfileselectionbox composite widget. The
fileselectionbox is composed of directory and file scrolled lists as
well as filter and selection entry fields. Bindings are in place such that
selection of a directory list item loads the filter entry field and
selection of a file list item loads the selection entry field. Options
exist to control the appearance and actions of the widget.
.SH "METHODS"
.PP
The \fBiwidgets::fileselectionbox\fR command creates a new Tcl command whose
name is \fIpathName\fR. This
command may be used to invoke various
operations on the widget. It has the following general form:
.DS C
\fIpathName option \fR?\fIarg arg ...\fR?
.DE
\fIOption\fR and the \fIarg\fRs
determine the exact behavior of the command. The following
commands are possible for fileselectionbox widgets:
.SH "WIDGET-SPECIFIC METHODS"
.TP
\fIpathName \fBcget\fR \fIoption\fR
Returns the current value of the configuration option given
by \fIoption\fR.
\fIOption\fR may have any of the values accepted by the \fBiwidgets::fileselectionbox\fR
command.
.TP
\fIpathName \fBchildsite\fR
Returns the child site widget path name.
.TP
\fIpathName\fR \fBconfigure\fR ?\fIoption\fR? ?\fIvalue option value ...\fR?
Query or modify the configuration options of the widget.
If no \fIoption\fR is specified, returns a list describing all of
the available options for \fIpathName\fR (see \fBTk_ConfigureInfo\fR for
information on the format of this list). If \fIoption\fR is specified
with no \fIvalue\fR, then the command returns a list describing the
one named option (this list will be identical to the corresponding
sublist of the value returned if no \fIoption\fR is specified). If
one or more \fIoption\-value\fR pairs are specified, then the command
modifies the given widget option(s) to have the given value(s); in
this case the command returns an empty string.
\fIOption\fR may have any of the values accepted by the \fBiwidgets::fileselectionbox\fR
command.
.TP
\fIpathName \fBfilter\fR
Update the current contents of the file selection box based on the current
filter entry field value.
.TP
\fIpathName \fBget\fR
Returns the current value of the selection entry widget.
