Tkinter:select directory dialog?

[Park997]

Thanks this did the trick. I am still using 
Python 2.0. The addition of askdirectory
to Python 2.2 was a good idea :-).

>> from tkCommonDialog import Dialog
>> class Chooser(Dialog):
>>     command = "tk_chooseDirectory"
>>     def _fixresult(self, widget, result):
>>         if result:
>>             self.options["initialdir"] = result
>>         self.directory = result # compatibility
>>         return result
>>
>> def askdirectory(**options):
>>     return apply(Chooser, (), options).show()
