How do I open folder selection dialog in Perl?

From stackoverflow Greg

• You may want to check out the GUI bindings in wxPerl.

  From Ether

• Depends on the GUI system you're using, and perhaps the platform. For example, on Windows and using Win32::GUI, you can use GetOpenFileName:

  # $main is your main window...
  $my_file = $main->GetOpenFileName(
      -title => 'Select a file...',
      -file => 'default.file',
  );
  

  From Adam Bellaire

• Most portable (at least compared to others):

  use Tk;
  my $dir = Tk::MainWindow->new->chooseDirectory;
  

  Of course, if you're actually using Tk in the rest of your program, you should call chooseDirectory on a proper parent widget instead of the one constructed and destructed here.
