Does anybody have any idea how to code a "Set Directory" command
on the Mac?  I would like to perform a command similar to the
"cd" command in Unix, but with a dialog box similar to the Save As
command, but without a Save button, and with a Set Directory button
that can be applied to a selected directory.  It will be essentially
like a Save As dialog box but only folders (directorys) will show
in the list.

I need this to be able to batch process all files within
a directory of a certain type (e.g. all PICT files) after the
appropriate folder has been set.

Parden my ignorance if this is trivial.

Thanks,
George Elkins
