AG_GETOFD (47) displays a standard Windows open or save file dialog, such as the one shown below (from Windows 10). This operation can only take place on a GUI-enabled client, either ATE or some form of A-Shell/Windows.
This function has both a subroutine and a print tab implementation.
The parameter formats and values are the same as in MX_GETOFD, which is the preferred way of accessing the function. The return data, sent into the keyboard channel, consists of Files,Flags,FileTitle<CR>. The files parameter contains one or more complete filespecs, separated by chr(10) characters.
