Thank you to everyone, especially hh and colin.
I was using "answer file with no "titled" clause. I need to

broke but it was fixed pretty soon after, I just can't recall which
version that was.

The following workaround is from a bug report, I can't
remember the number and who found it (not me, at any rate).
put "I m the missing prompt" into pp
answer file pp with myPath titled pp

I seem to have prompt text in the title bar of the file dialog. But that’s with
Sierra not El Capitan.

First, I realize I am on old versions of things. I am using LC 6.7.11
and running mostly under OSX Mavericks (10.9.5)
I just discovered that - under El Capitan (10.11.x) and presumably 10.12
- the LiveCode 'ask file ' statement no longer display the
text because the open file dialog under El
