Yes, it's something like this. > Normally we just want to to just start our browsing for > a directory from a given start point (e.g. last save dir, > current dir, some arbitrary app dir, etc.) but let the user > fully navigate the full file system. I've reviewed the docs and it seems the only way to do this is to pass the SHBrowseForFolder call a callback that will respond to a BFFM_INITIALIZED message, respond with BFFM_SETSELECTION and path of the folder to select. Awfull. And currently AFAIK not possible with Win32::API. I guess I'll have to use FFI instead of Win32::API for this. Did anyone already try to convert Win32::API calls to FFI? It seems that it should be easy.
