tkFileDialog.... help

[Kevin Cazabon]

Thanks Martin;

It works ok, but the problem I have is that you can't specify multiple file
types to filter.  I guess it's better than only being able to select
individual files, but it's not ideally what I was looking for.

In the meantime though, it's working.  I'm going to try to see if maybe
Mark's win32 stuff can be hacked to do it through the windows API.

Kevin.
