I eventually had a look into the GUI plug-in stuff and came up with this.

It uses a zenity-inspired gtk binary to make the dialogue (not
particularly finesse, but easier thank tcl/gtk). Source and binary as
well as the tcl plugin here:

That's great!  So much better than the crappy Tcl/Tk open panel.  It
would be great to have the save panel too. I added code so that the
plugin finds pd_gtk_open in the searchpath, that's attached. I also
think an install target for the Makefile would make it really easy to
install:
Hey thanks for that. I already have the binary for the save dialog, I just have to figure out how to make the plug-in.

install:
        install -d ~/pd-externals/
        install -p -m644 gtkopen-plugin.tcl ~/pd-externals/
        install -p -m755 $(PROGRAM) ~/pd-externals/
Ok.. but I think someone was raising the issue of a ~/pd-externals dir being created. Anyway it does make sense to distribute the plug-in
If you want to publicize this, you could add it to the GUI Plugins
section of the new download page:

I'll do that as soon as I have time, maybe once the save is done... An open without a matching save seems a bit strange atm :)
