in reply to Tk dirSelect -options problem

Should I be able to use the –directory option?

Documentation says yes, but error message and source code says no, there is a bug in the module documentation/implementation

The option in actuality is -dir not -directory

    Thank you. I tried that and found that
    1. it did not give an error:
    2. however, it gave the directory where the Perl was stored rather than the directory supplied as the initial one.

      Not unexpected given its a bug :) give the source a read you'll see what I'm saying
