Procs

proc init(self: wFileDialog; owner: wWindow = nil; message = ""; defaultDir = "";
         defaultFile = ""; wildcard = "*.*"; style: wStyle = wFdOpen) {...}{.
    raises: [wWindowError, wCursorError, IndexDefect, wFontError], tags: [RootEffect].}
Initializer. 
proc FileDialog(owner: wWindow = nil; message = ""; defaultDir = ""; defaultFile = "";

    discardable, raises: [wWindowError, wCursorError, IndexDefect, wFontError],
    tags: [RootEffect].}
