The only way that I know of is to use a widget for the directory and one
for the file, then os.path.join them...
import os
from gimpfu import *
gettext.install("gimp20-python", gimp.locale_directory, unicode=True)
def jbtest(project_directory, new_file):
final_str = "Test Text..."
output_file = open(os.path.join(project_directory, new_file), 'w')
output_file.write(final_str)
output_file.close()
register(
"jbtest",
N_("Choose a Directory and Filename:"),
"Create a new file in the specified directory",
"Jerry Baker",
"Jerry Baker",
"11/14/2011",
N_("jbtest"),
"",
[
# --- Parameters
(PF_DIRNAME, "project_directory", _("Project Directory:"), ""),
(PF_STRING, "new_file", _("File Name:"), _("new_file.txt")),
],
[
# --- Results
],
jbtest,
menu="/_Dev",
domain=("gimp20-python", gimp.locale_directory)
)
main()

OK, makes sense. Now, how can I prompt for the name of a file that
doesn't exist (yet)?

If you put a '/' at the end of the default string it will prompt the
user for a directory.
If you leave off the '/' at the end of the default string it will
prompt the user for a file.
Examples:
(PF_FILE, "pf_afile", _("Choose File:"), "/home/jbaker"), # Choose
a file
(PF_FILE, "pf_adir", _("Choose Directory:"), "/home/jbaker/"), #
Choose a directory
or
(PF_FILE, "pf_afile", _("Choose File:"), ""),
(PF_FILE, "pf_adir", _("Choose Directory:"), "/"),

I'm writing a python plugin that saves things to a file, and I'm trying
to come up with the right parameter type to obtain a filename form the user.
There are PF_FILE and PF_FILENAME parameter types. Both correspond to a
string with the file name in it. Furthermore the file must exist for
both, so they cannot be used for the name of a file to be created? Why
are there two types if they do the same thing? Am I missing something?
