in thread Dialog Create Directory

30 years in this business and was never on a forum.
here some more information:
using Tk on UNIX (Solaris)
in a private Dialog window collecting information to fork a program with parameters
one of the entries has a browse button ...
This browse button should be able to show the directory entries and if needed allow to create a new directory which will be shown in the collecting window.
everything is ready so far, this is the only part missing (I hope :-) ) Thanks for any suggestion.

BR, Remi

    Ah yes, Tk has such dialogs ready-to-use. A quick search unearthed Tk::FileDialog, there may be more.

      FileDialog brings me following error (anyway I am using it)

      can't make ".filedialog" its own master at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.0/sun4-solaris/Tk/Submethods.pm line 37.
      at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.0/Tk/FileDialog.pm line 470


        Who told you to use that? Tk-FileDialog-1.3 09 Jun 1996
