gEDA-dev: Filechooser and component selector code

[Stuart Brorson]

Patrick --

Thanks for your work on the new file chooser!  I just rebuilt gEDA/gaf
and tried out the filechooser with gattrib.   It looks nice!

It seems to work.  I tried a couple of ways to use it and everything
seemed happy -- no segfaults or munged files.  Do you have specific
concerns about some mode of operation, or just a general worry?

One little nit:  When opening multiple files, the new filechooser
allows you to use the shift key to select a range of files to open in
a multiple-open operation.  However, you can't use ctrl to
individually select a bunch of files for a multiple-open operation.
Did you include this ability into the code?

Thanks again Patrick for the new filechooser!
