A library to invoke the native file selection dialogs to open or save files.

file-select

## About File-Select
This library allows you to open native file dialogs to open and save files. This is useful if you have an application that's primarily text based and would like a more convenient file selection utility, or if you are working with a UI toolkit that does not offer a way to access the native file dialogs directly.

## How To
After loading it, simply invoke ``new`` or ``existing``. This should bring up a file dialog in the preferred backend for your current system. The backend to use is determined on first call.

:: lisp
(org.shirakumo.file-select:new :type "png")
(org.shirakumo.file-select:existing :multiple T)
::

Returned are two values -- the file or files selected as pathnames, and whether the user successfully completed the selection. If the second value is ``NIL``, it means the user aborted the operation by closing or cancelling the dialog.

## Supported Backends
The following file selection backends are currently supported:

- ``gtk``
- ``macos`` (AppKit/Cocoa)
- ``win32`` (IFileDialog)
- ``zenity``/``matedialog``,``qarma``
- ``kdialog``
- ``yad``
