(finder:dialog-parent-parameter)
 → (or/c false/c (is-a?/c dialog%) (is-a?/c frame%))
(finder:dialog-parent-parameter parent) → void?
  parent : (or/c false/c (is-a?/c dialog%) (is-a?/c frame%))
This parameter determines the parent of the dialogs created by finder:get-file, finder:put-file, finder:common-get-file, finder:common-put-file, finder:common-get-file-list, finder:std-get-file, and finder:std-put-file.
(finder:default-extension) → string?
(finder:default-extension extension) → void?
  extension : string?
This parameter controls the default extension for the framework’s finder:put-file dialog. Its value gets passed as the default-extension argument to put-file.

Its default value is "".
(finder:default-filters) → (listof (list/c string? string?))
(finder:default-filters filters) → void?
  filters : (listof (list/c string? string?))
This parameter controls the default filters for the framework’s finder:put-file dialog. Its value gets passed as the default-filters argument to put-file.

Its default value is '(("Any" "*.*")).

This procedure queries the user for a single filename, using a platform-independent dialog box. Consider using finder:put-file instead of this function.

This procedure queries the user for a single filename, using a platform-dependent dialog box. Consider using finder:put-file instead of this function.

  parent : (or/c (is-a?/c top-level-window<%>) false/c)
   = (finder:dialog-parent-parameter)
Queries the user for a filename.

If the result of (preferences:get 'framework:file-dialogs) is 'std this calls finder:std-put-file, and if it is 'common, finder:common-put-file is called.
