'''
Native filechooser dialog facade.
=================================
open_file, save_file and choose_dir accept a number of arguments
listed below. They return either a list of paths (normally
absolute), or None if no file was selected or the operation was
canceled and no result is available.
Arguments:
* **path** *(string or None)*: a path that will be selected
by default, or None
* **multiple** *(bool)*: True if you want the dialog to
allow multiple file selection. (Note: Windows doesn't
support multiple directory selection)
* **filters** *(iterable)*: either a list of wildcard patterns
or of sequences that contain the name of the filter and any
number of wildcards that will be grouped under that name
(e.g. [["Music", "*mp3", "*ogg", "*aac"], "*jpg", "*py"])
* **preview** *(bool)*: True if you want the file chooser to
show a preview of the selected file, if supported by the
back-end.
* **title** *(string or None)*: The title of the file chooser
window, or None for the default title.
* **icon** *(string or None)*: Path to the icon of the file
chooser window (where supported), or None for the back-end's
default.
* **show_hidden** *(bool)*: Force showing hidden files (currently
supported only on Windows)
* **on_selection** *(func)*: Callback for fetching the selection.
Important: these methods will return only after user interaction.
Use threads or you will stop the mainloop if your app has one.
.. versionchanged:: 1.4.0
Added Android implementation for open_file()
Added ``on_selection`` kwarg for callback function
Supported Plaforms
