As you may have noticed, some of us got confused as to whether you wanted a
file dialog or a folder dialog. Fortunately both are available for PC and
Mac. The PC functions are built into the current Buddy API Xtra as
baGetFileName() and baGetFolder().
Mac users can get the temporarily separate baGetFileName and baGetFolder
Xtras from:

I say temporary because I suspect they'll be incorporated into the full
Buddy API in the future.
