usage:
-set filename varbname value [Promptstring Flag Matchstr Rootdir]

The SET FILENAME command creates a user-defined variable called VARBNAME and sets it to a file or directory name found via an interactive file browsing window.

The FLAG argument can be used to control search options.
FLAG (octal values are listed; add positive values to combine options):

• 1 - ADDROOT: add the root directory '/' to the browse window
• 2 - ADDBACK: add the parent directory '..' to the browse window
• 4 - FILETYPE: add filetype character before each file name
• 010 - ATROOT:
• 020 - SORT: sort the list alphabetically
• 040 - ACCESS: only include files in browser if the user has access permission
• 0100 - ROOTDIR: don't allow search above starting directory
• 0200 - MULTIPLE: allow multiple files to be selected
• 0400 - SORTFILETYPES: list directories first, then regular files
• 01000 - NEWLIST:
• 02000 - 1STRING: return selected file(s) as single line string
• 04000 - REGFILES: include regular files
• 0100000 - NOBROWSE: find all files in ROOTDIR without opening a browser window
• 0200000 - DIRS: only list directories
• 0400000 - NODIRS: do not list directories
• 0 - Default: ADDBACK + FILETYPE + SORT + 1STRING
• -1 - ADDBACK + FILETYPE + SORT + 1STRING + MULTIPLE
