location_popup


Description:

public signal void location_popup (string path)

Emitted when the user asks for it.

This is a [keybinding signal](class.SignalAction.html).

This is used to make the file chooser show a "Location" prompt which the user can use to manually type the name of the file he wishes to select.

The default bindings for this signal are <kbd>Control</kbd>-<kbd>L</kbd> with a path string of "" ( the empty string). It is also bound to <kbd>/</kbd> with a path string of "`/`" (a slash): this lets you type `/` and immediately type a path name. On Unix systems, this is bound to <kbd>~</kbd> (tilde) with a path string of "~" itself for access to home directories.

Parameters:

path

a string that gets put in the text entry for the file name
