Package uk.ac.starlink.table.gui
Class SystemTableSaveDialog
java.lang.Object
uk.ac.starlink.table.gui.SystemTableSaveDialog
- All Implemented Interfaces:
TableSaveDialog
Table save dialogue based on the native system file dialogue.
This is a wrapper around
FileDialog
, which is in turn
a thin wrapper around whatever the native platform uses for its
default file browser. Looks ugly on my fvwm-based Linux desktop,
but for Mac and MS users it may be much preferable to the java-coded
alternatives.- Since:
