Browse dialog?
 
Is there a way to cause a browse dialog popup (like #prompt or #yesno do) to let the user choose a file (and have an option just to popup a tree to select a folder) and return the path of the file or folder selected to a script? If there isn't, I'd like to request one. It's much easier to browse to a folder - and create new folders for things - than to try to remember the names of the folders and hope that whatever command you're running has the ability to create new folders if they don't exist.

No, not right now. You'll be able to do this easily once zApp is fully integrated. There hasn't been any demand for this in the past because zMUD typically only accessed files within the install directory or the character session directory. Even CMUD prefers if you keep your characters organized within the DataDir directory chosen at install time. And not many commands work with files.

In any case, you can always use the File/Open dialog in the Editor window to open choose a file. It uses the Windows Shell components, so you can create folders, right-click, etc just like in the Windows file explorer.
