Subject: choose folder interactively

Thank you Duncan for your answer
I would like to be able to write an equivalent for MacOS, but I'm not
that skilled... I don't know how to find how choose.dir() is written.
And then, I'm even less sure to be able to find the equivalent...
Would you mind giving my some hints?
Thank you in advance
Ivan
