  8. Would it be possible to put in a FW_CChooseFile::ChooseFolderToOpen method?
  9.  
  10. Or even better, is there a simple way to do
  11.  
  12.     FW_CChooseFile::ChooseFileOrFolderToOpen    ?
  13.  
  14. I have a particularly nifty use in mind for such a function!
  15.  
  16. You know, the Mac's Drag manager makes the file type of a folder 'fold'
  17. (I'm pretty sure) and of a volume 'disk' (I think), which makes it easy to
  18. deal with any file system object - file, folder, or volume.
  19.  
  20. Maybe it would be appropriate for OpenDoc to handle StandardGet/SaveDialog,
  21. and just put the returned contents in a storage unit...
