first off.. I wouldn't be using 'ls' that has gotten me into trouble especially when people have ls aliased to 'ls -ltr' use opendir(), readdir() and closedir().
second I am sure that there is a widget or code somewhere that someone wrote that does what you want. Just look for it, (I don't know where because I haven't been doing much Tk in a while). Is this the Tk module you are using or some other gui module? > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, June 27, 2002 3:06 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: File selection dialog > > > The filefield allows for me to select a file or directory > from the users machine > but I wanted to see a list of files and directories in the server. > > I thought I could use the 'ls' command to get a list of files > and put it in a > scrolling_list or pop_menu but I do not know how to keep it > going,i.e. if the > user clicks on a directory then I have to 'ls directory-name' > and then put > those contents in the scroll_list .
