An alternative to get the real Windows browser dialog:

>>> import win32com.shell.shell
>>> win32com.shell.shell.SHBrowseForFolder(0, None, "Select it", 0, None,
0)
('\024\000\037P\340O\320 \352:i\020\242\330\010\000+00\235\024\000.w
\354!\352:i\020\242\335\010\000+00\235\000\000', 'Control Panel', 21)
>>>

I selected "Control Panel" - You will need to read the docs to see how to
use that funky string (the PIDL)...

No news on starship yet - if its not available for me to re-upload in 24
hours I will do it somewhere else...

Mark.
