I'm sure this is an easy question for everyone but I haven't been able
to figure it out yet.  How do you get the filename that the user picks
or types from a FileSelectionDialog?  For instance, after the user clicks
on the "OK" button, I want to retrieve the name that was chosen.

I have been able to set the XmNdirSpec using the XtSetValues but I haven't
been able to retrieve it (as a XmString?) and change it back into array
of char.
