I found a description that I can open a filedialog with the getfile.exe which is an external program ... I created an external program to linux too but then I realized that there is a solution in emacs when I use "visit ..." menu item. I wouldn't like to find out this solution again ... :) regards, Lajos On Mon, Aug 27, 2018 at 1:22 PM wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > On Mon, Aug 27, 2018 at 11:45:30AM +0200, Lajos Bodnar wrote: > > Hi, > > I'd like to know what is the "visit new file" command in the menubar. > > This command can open a filedialog ... > > I tried to find it but ... > > I'm not sure I understand your question, but let me try :-) > > "Visit new file" is there to open an existent file or to create > a new file.
