Hi. The default behavior of emacs 21 is to get windows-file-dialogs when you use the mouse and minibuffer-dialogs when you use the keyboard. But you can change that with the custom-variable use-dialog-box: "use-dialog-box's value is t Documentation: *Non-nil means mouse commands use dialog boxes to ask questions. This applies to y-or-n and yes-or-no questions asked by commands invoked by mouse clicks and mouse menu items. You can customize this variable." Regards, Geert Ribbers
Unfortunately, use-dialog-box only applies to commands initiated using the mouse.
How do I get gnu emacs to use the dialog box for the keyboard command c-x,c-f ?
