There's nothing that would complete directories only, so you have to use
the file completor if you don't want to do a lot of work.
mod_query.query_execfile is close then, but it expects a command string
as an argument, and here we want a continuation function (the queries are
asynchronous; they don't return the result). Something like the following
should work
function query_file(mplex, prompt, cnt)
local function handle_evalfile(mplex, str)
cnt(str)
end
return mod_query.query(mplex, prompt, mod_query.get_initdir(mplex),
handle_evalfile, mod_query.file_completor,
"filename")
end
You may of course simply want to pass mplex directly to cnt.
(The last parameter to mod_query.query is the history group name
in case you're wondering.)
